Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Alabama, your beautiful sunlight

 Your fields of cerisa, potatos and corn

Alabama, your crimson red clover

 All mingled around the old place I was born

Alabama, your hills and your valleys

 Your creeks sing with laughter as onward they flow

Alabama, so sweet in the springtime

 Sweet ferns and wild flowers in winter with snow

Alabama, so sweet to my memory

 You shine like a light on the beautiful hill

Alabama, in days of my childhood

 I've labored and toiled at the old sorghum mill

Alabama, when red leaves are falling

 I've roamed through your pastures with fences of rail

Alabama, when possums are crawling and

 And hound dogs are whining and wagging their tails

Alabama, your beautiful highways

 Are carved through the mountain where loved ones do wait

Alabama, your goldenrod flowers

 And the welcome home sign hanging over the gate

Alabama, to me you are calling

 My footsteps are comin’ no longer to stray

Alabama, you hold all I long for

 You hold all I love, so I'm coming today
