Bobby Bare - Alabama rose

One n^Aight I went to t^Gown And met a gi^Drl from Alab^Aama In her eyes I s^Gaw the sadness s^Dhe had seen in l^E7ife I fo^Aund out she had sp^Gent some wasted ye^Dars in Chi^Acago She had k^Anown a hundred m^Gen or more But n^Dever as a wi^E7fe

She was g^Aoing home To st^Dart her life ag^Aain in Alabama Where s^Ahe had been And w^Dhy God only kn^E7ows ^{B7 E7} But I lo^Aved that girl And be^Dgged her just to st^Aay with me in Nashville And I c^Aalled that girl my A^Glaba^Dma R^Aose

The d^Aays turned into w^Geeks And I was s^Dure she'd learned to l^Aove me But so^Ametimes late at n^Gight I'd wake and l^Disten to her ^E7cry The s^Aun came up one m^Gorning And my r^Dose was not bes^Aide me I g^Aot that feeling ^GLike you w^Dant to d^E7ie

Now I wo^Ander if she e^Dver made it b^Aack to Alabama Wh^Aere she is and w^Dhy God only kn^E7ows ^{B7 E7} But s^Ahe must know no ma^Dtter where she g^Aoes My dr^Aeams go with her 'Cause I still love my ^GAlab^Dama R^Aose God knows I love my ^GAlab^Dama R^Aose
