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

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