[Verse 1]
G#
Well, I didn't know him best
C#
He'd say we were friends
D# G#
We both rode the highways on the song
G# C#
So I'm writing this one here in memory of him
D# G#
'Cause the King of Alabama has gone home
[Verse 2]
G#
He was a man among men, the old-school kind
C#
Had a great big heart, a laid-back mind
D#
Let you hold his guitar if you broke his string
C# D#
If you thought he looked country, outta heard him sing
[Verse 3]
G#
From Alabama 'cross the Rio Grande
C#
He beat the blacktop down with a five-piece band
D#
Not because he loved it - he did that too -
C# D#
But he did it man 'cause that's what he was born to do
[Chorus 1]
Fm Cm
Some people calculate moves
C# G#
He never had a thing to prove
Fm Cm C# G#
He just let the wind take him where it may
A#m
It's a damn shame the way things go
Cm
It's too bad we have to lose the good folks
C# Cm A#m D# G# |C#
But the King of Alabama has gone home

[Verse 4]
G# C#
"Nothin' good ever happens after midnight," so the story goes
D# C# D#
You can't trust nobody, it don't matter how close
G# C#
It was a friend that took him from his family
D#
I keep his chain in my pocket, his son in my prayers
C# D#
Every stage I'm on, I can feel him there
[Chorus 1]
