Alabama Pines Jason Isbell
ALABAMA PINES - Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit
Capo 4
Intro : C
[C]Well I moved into this room, if you could call it that, a week [Cmaj9]ago.
[Am]I never do what I'm supposed to do.
I hardly ev[Am7]en know my name a[Fmaj7]nymore.
When no one calls it out, it kinda vanishes away.[C]
[C]I can't get to sleep at night. The parking lot's so loud and [Cmaj9]bright.
The [Am]a/c hasn't worked in twenty years.
Probably never [Am7]made a s[Fmaj7]ingle person cold,
but I can't say the same for me. I've d[C]one it many times.
Somebody [Cmaj9]take me [Am]home through t[Am7]hose [Fmaj7]Alabama pines[C].
[C]You can't drive through Talladega on a weekend in Oct[Cmaj9]ober.
[Am]Head up north to Jacksonville. Cut around and o[Am7]ver.
Watch [Fmaj7]your speed in Boiling Springs.
They ain't got a thing to do. They'll [C]get you every time.
Somebody [Cmaj9]take me [Am]home through t[Am7]hose [Fmaj7]Alabama pines[C].
Somebody [Cmaj9]take me [Am]home through t[Am7]hose [Fmaj7]Alabama pines[C].
[C]Ohh [Cmaj9]Ohhh [Am]Ohhh [Am7]Ohhh [Fmaj7]Ohhh
[C]Ohh [Cmaj9]Ohhh [Am]Ohhh [Am7]Ohhh [Fmaj7]Ohhh
If we p[C]ass through on a Sunday, better make a stop at Wayne's[Cmaj9].
It's the [Am]only open liquor store north, and I can[Am7]'t stand the pain
[Fmaj7]of being by myself without a little help
on a [C]Sunday afternoon.
[C]I needed that damn woman like a dream needs gasoline.[Cmaj9]
[Am]I tried to be some ancient kind of man,
one that's never [Am7]seen the [Fmaj7]beauty in the world,
but I tried to chase it down... tried to m[C]ake the whole thing mine.
Somebody [Cmaj9]take me [Am]home through t[Am7]hose [Fmaj7]Alabama pines[C].
Somebody [Cmaj9]take me [Am]home through t[Am7]hose [Fmaj7]Alabama pines[C].
[C]Ohh [Cmaj9]Ohhh [Am]Ohhh [Am7]Ohhh [Fmaj7]Ohhh
[C]Ohh [Cmaj9]Ohhh [Am]Ohhh [Am7]Ohhh [Fmaj7]Ohhh
I've been st[C]uck here in this town, if you could call it that, a y[Cmaj9]ear or two.
[Am]I never do what I'm supposed to do.
I don't even n[Am7]eed a name a[Fmaj7]nymore.
When no one calls it out, it kinda v[C]anishes away.
[C]No one gives a damn about the things I give a damn about[Cmaj9].
[Am]The liberties that we can't do without seem to [Am7]disappear
like [Fmaj7]ghosts in the air.
When we don't even care, it truly v[C]anishes away.
