[Intro]
F# E B B 4x
[Verse]
F# E B
It was 1989, my thoughts were short my hair was long
F# E B
Caught somewhere between a boy and man
F# E B
She was 17 and she was far from in between
F# E B
It was summertime in Northern Michigan
[Interlude]
F# E B B 2x
Ahh, ahh
[Verse]
F# E B
Splashin' thru the sandbar, talkin' by the campfire
F# E B
It's the simple things in life like when and where
F# E B
We didn't have no internet, but man I never will forget
F# E B
The way the moonlight shined upon her hair
[Chorus]
F# E
And we were tryin' different things
B
and we were smokin' funny things
F# E B
Makin' love out by the lake to our favorite songs
F# E B
Sippin' whisky out the bottle not thinkin' 'bout tomorrow
F# E B F# E B
Singin' sweet home alabama all summer long
F# E B
Singin' sweet home alabama all summer long
[Verse]
F# E B
Catchin' walleye from the dock watchin' waves roll off the rocks
F# E B
She'll forever hold a spot inside my soul
F# E B
We'd blister in the sun we couldn't wait for night to come
F# E B
To hit that sandy place of rock 'n roll
[Chorus]
F# E
And we were tryin' different things
B
and we were smokin' funny things
F# E B
Makin' love out by the lake to our favorite songs
F# E B
Sippin' whisky out the bottle not thinkin' 'bout tomorrow
F# E B F# E B
Singin' sweet home alabama all summer long

Singin' sweet home alabama all summer long
[Solo]

Ahh, ahh
F# E B B 2x
[Verse]
F# E B
Now nothin' seems as strange as when the leaves began to change
F# E B
Oh how we thought those days would never end
F# E B
Sometimes I hear that song and I'll start to sing along
F# E B B B
And think man I'd like to see that girl again
[Chorus]
F# E
And we were tryin' different things
B
and we were smokin' funny things
F# E B
Makin' love out by the lake to our favorite songs
F# E B
Sippin' whisky out the bottle not thinkin' 'bout tomorrow

Singin' sweet home alabama all summer long
