[Intro]
 Am   G   D   C
Am   G   D   F

[Verse]
         Am        
She was born on the
              G
 border of a red 
clay river
 D                 
Some place south of
  C
 Chickasaw
           Am
Where the cotton grew high
         G
And the stars free fall
     D                
The world stands still
            F
 while the copperheads 
crawl

     Am               
Car parts in the yard 
         G
and the weeds overgrown
           D              
But daddy built that house 
                Em
on Alabama sto-one

[Chorus]
C              G
On that solid rock 
she stands
    D              
All other ground is 
  Em
sinking sand
     C                
But you can't ever get
  G
 too far gone
           D            
When your roots run deep 
               
through Alabama 
      Em   C   D   D
sto-one

[Verse]
     Am               
She liked to say she'd
      G
 get out someday
  D                 C
Maybe make it to Mobile
        Am           
But she met a man just
    G
 good enough
    D                   
To make her stop turning
  F
 those wheels

    Am                    
Now she cleans the kitchen
      G
 and he's never home
        D                
So she stares at her hand 
                     Em
at that Alabama sto-one

[Chorus]
C              G
On that solid rock 
she stands
    D              
All other ground is
  Em
 sinking sand
     C            
But you can't ever 
      G
get too far gone
           D            
When your roots run deep
                     Em   C
 through Alabama sto-one
     D                  
Ooh ooh, through Alabama
     Em   C   D
 sto-one

[Break]
 Am                   
Fresh pile of dirt and 
    G           D
a fake red ro-ose
      Am         G
They carved her name
 D
Last one in a row


[Pre-Chorus]
 C                G
Under that solid rock 
she lies
     D              
Too old to dream too
  Em
 young to die
 C                  G
You can't ever get too 
far gone
           D
When your roots run deep
 through Alabama stone

[Chorus]
C              G
On that solid rock 
she stands
    D                Em
All other ground is sinking 
sand
     C                  G
But you can't ever get too 
far gone
           D            
When your roots run deep 
                     Em
through Alabama sto-one
     C
Ooh ooh
     D
Ooh ooh
                    Em
Through Alabama sto-one
     C
Ooh ooh
     D
Ooh ooh
               
Through Alabama
  Em       C   D   D
 sto-o-one

[Outro]
Em   C   D   D
F    C    F    C  
 G   Am    G   C
