Old Alabama

 
              
Intro: G  F  C  G 
 
G 
She?d rather wear a pair of cut-off jeans 
         C 
Than a fancy evening dress, 
             D 
And with her windows rolled down and her hair all blown around, 
        Em           F 
She?s a hot southern mess... 
              G 
She?ll take a beer over white wine 
       C 
And a campfire over candle light, 
            D 
And when it comes to love, oh her idea 
      Em         F 
Of a romantic night... 
 
 
    G            F       C      G             F        C 
Is listening to old Alabama, driving through Tennessee, 
         G                        D 
A little Dixieland Delight at The Right Time Of The Night, 
    F                   C           D   
And she can?t keep her hands off of me

              G 
And now we?re rolling down an old back road, 
            C 
I got the steering wheel in one hand, 
       D 
We?ll find a hideaway where she and I can play, 
Em                 F 
In Mother Nature?s band... 
 
 
          G             F        C    G                  F         C 
Now we?re listening to old Alabama, parked somewhere in Tennessee, 
         G                        D 
A little Dixieland Delight and It Feels So Right, 
         F            C          D 
And It?s Love In The First Degree

Em 
Forget about Sinatra or Coltrane, 
        C 
Or some old Righteous Brothers song, 
         Am 
Hey even Barry White ain?t gonna work tonight, 
       D            C        Bm  Am 
If you really wanna turn her on, 
          G                 C          G              C 
Play some back home come on music that comes from the heart, 
     G                      C 
Play something with lots of feeling, 
                   Am            D  C  Bm  Am 
Cause that?s where music has to start. 
 
 
          G              F         C 
Now we?re listening to Old Alabama, 
            G               F        C 
And we're driving through Tennessee, 
          G                       D 
A little Dixieland Delight and It Feels So Right 
         F           C       D 
And it's Love In The First Degree. 
 
 
                     G              F          C 
Yeah, you know we?re listening to Old Alabama, 
G                F         C 
Driving through Tennessee, 
         G                   D 
A little Why Lady Why at The Right Time Of The Night 
        F                 C            D  
Oh and she can?t keep her hands off of me
