2nd Verse

       G                                 Cadd9                     GI hung up the phone and I could feel the emptiness at 80 miles an hour.
      Am                                DAnd I listened close and I could hear my heart beating louder than the
Gtires.
         G                          Cadd9This old bus was headed west but my mind was drifting somewhere towards the
Gsouth.

      Am                                 Cadd9                 DAnd I closed my eyes and I could see the bright lights shining clearly
             Gthrough the clouds.


(Chorus)

                         Cadd9  D                             G‘Cause God put stars in Alabama. You just can’t find in Tennessee.
                            Am                           DThe same ones are waiting on you. That taught you how to dream.
                               Cadd9    D                              GI know there’s big names up in Nashville. And you’ll be one before too long.
                         Am                                 GBut God put stars in Alabama. To help you find your way back home.”

                          AmYeah, there’s stars in Alabama. (Pause) That just can’t wait ‘til you get
Ghome.

This is only my second time submitting and it's late tonight so if I messed up I 
I just got frustrated that nobody had put anything together for more of Jamey's songs. Anyways 
is my contribution.

This is a great song.

Enjoy,
