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

It's a damn shame the way things go

It's too bad we have to lose the good folks
G# Fm A#
But the King of Alabama has gone home

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

The King of Alabama
