Alabama

^{A A A A}
chorus 1: ^A If you're gonna play in ^E Texas,
You ^D gotta have a fiddle in the ^A band.
That lead guitar is hot,
^E but not for ^D "Lousiana Man". ^E
So ^F#m rosin up that ^E bow for "Faded Love" ^D
and let's all ^A dance.
If you're gonna play in ^E Texas,
You ^D gotta have a fiddle in the ^F#m band.
^{F#m E D D A A A A}
verse 1:I re- ^A member down in Hou- ^E ston
we were ^D puttin' on a show ^A
When a cowboy in the back ^E stood up and ^D yelled,
"Cotton-Eyed ^E Joe"!
He said, "We love ^A what you're do- ^E in'.
Boys ^D don't get us wrong ^A ,
There's just somethin' ^E missin' in your ^A song.
(repeat Chorus 1)
verse 2:So we dusted off our boots and put our cowboy hats on straight.
Them Texans raised the roof when Jeff opened up his case.
You say y'all all wanna two-step. You say ya wanna doe-si-doe.
Well, here's a fiddlin' song before we go.
(Chorus 2--same as chorus 1, except last line goes:
...gotta have a fiddle in the ^A band)
repeat and fade
Enjoy!
Anyone with TAB to this, PLEASE let me know!
