[Verse 1]
F#
Well, I didn't know him best
B
He'd say we were friends
C# F#
We both rode the highways on the song
F# B
So I'm writing this one here in memory of him
C# F#
'Cause the King of Alabama has gone home
[Verse 2]
F#
He was a man among men, the old-school kind
B
Had a great big heart, a laid-back mind
C#
Let you hold his guitar if you broke his string
B C#
If you thought he looked country, outta heard him sing
[Verse 3]
F#
From Alabama 'cross the Rio Grande
B
He beat the blacktop down with a five-piece band
C#
Not because he loved it - he did that too -
B C#
But he did it man 'cause that's what he was born to do
[Chorus 1]
D#m A#m
Some people calculate moves
B F#
He never had a thing to prove
D#m A#m B F#
He just let the wind take him where it may
G#m
It's a damn shame the way things go
A#m
It's too bad we have to lose the good folks
B A#m G#m C# F# |B
But the King of Alabama has gone home
|F# |B
[Verse 4]
F# B
"Nothin' good ever happens after midnight," so the story goes
C# B C#
You can't trust nobody, it don't matter how close
F# B
It was a friend that took him from his family
C#
I keep his chain in my pocket, his son in my prayers
B C#
Every stage I'm on, I can feel him there
[Chorus 1]
D#m A#m
Some people calculate moves
B F#
He never had a thing to prove
D#m A#m B F#
He just let the wind take him where it may
G#m
It's a damn shame the way things go
A#m
It's too bad we have to lose the good folks
B G#m C#
But the King of Alabama has gone home

[Chorus 2]
D#m A#m
Some people calculate moves
B F#
He never had a thing to prove
D#m A#m B F#
He just let the wind take him where it may
D#m A#m
Honky tonks would trip
B F#
Get a guitar and beg him to pick
D# A#m B F#
Let the old tunes posses you and play
G#m
It's a damn shame the way things go
A#m
It's too bad we have to lose the good folks
B A#m G#m
But the King of Alabama
B A#m G#m
The King of Alabama

The King of Alabama has gone home
