Stars in Alabama Jamey Johnson
Capo 3
I said, ?[G]Mama don?t you worry, I?m [Cadd9]getting by just fine out on the r[G]oad.
Yeah, to[Am]night we played in Knoxville and to[Cadd9]morrow night its b[D]ack to Music
[G]Row.
No, I [G]don?t know when I?m coming home, M[Cadd9]ontgomery seems so very far a[G]way?.
She said, ?[Am]Boy, it wouldn?t kill you none to [D]look out past the bright
lights on that s[G]tage.
(Chorus)
?Cause God put stars in Al[Cadd9]abama.[D] You just can?t find in Tennes[G]see.
The same ones are waiting on[Am] you. That taught you how to [D]dream.
I know there?s big names up in [Cadd9]Nashville[D]. And you?ll be one before too [G]long.
But God put stars in Alab[Am]ama.[D] To help you find your way back [G]home.?
2nd Verse
I hung [G]up the phone and I could feel the [Cadd9]emptiness at 80 miles an h[G]our.
And I [Am]listened close and I could hear my[D] heart beating louder than the
[G]tires.
This old [G]bus was headed west but my [Cadd9]mind was drifting somewhere towards the
[G]south.
And I [Am]closed my eyes and I could see the [Cadd9]bright lights shining [D]clearly
through the c[G]louds.
(Chorus)
?Cause God put stars in A[Cadd9]labama.[D] You just can?t find in Tennes[G]see.
The same ones are waiting on[Am] you. That taught you how to [D]dream.
I know there?s big names up in [Cadd9]Nashville[D]. And you?ll be one before too [G]long.
But God put stars in Alab[Am]ama. To help you find your way back[G] home.?
Yeah, there?s stars in Ala[Am]bama. (Pause) That just can?t wait ?til you get
[G]home.
This is only my second time submitting and it's late tonight so if I messed up I
I just got frustrated that nobody had put anything together for more of Jamey's songs. Anyways
is my contribution.
This is a great song.
Enjoy,
Brett K.
