[D5] Big
[Cadd9] wheels keep on

[D5] Carry me
[Cadd9] home to see my

Well, I heard Mister Young sing about her
Well, I heard ole Neil put her down
Well, I hope Neil Young will remember
A southern man don't need him around anyhow

Sweet home Alabama, where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama, Lord, I'm coming home to you
VERSE 3:
In Birmingham they love the Gov'nor

Now we all did what we could do
Now Watergate does not bother me
Does your conscience bother you?
(tell the truth)
REPEAT CHORUS:
VERSE 4:
Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers
And they've been known to pick a tune or two
Lord they get me off so much
They pick me up when I'm feeling blue
Now how about you?
REPEAT CHORUS:
