SWEET HOME ALABAMA

Lynyrd Skynyrd

Tempo: 100, Intro: 4x:

Riff #1 over 2 x D C G

Well, I heard Mister Young sing about her

Well, I heard ole Neil put her down.

Well, I hope Neil Young will remember,

A southern man don't need him around anyhow

1st guitar solo over 2 x D C G

	F	C	D
In Birmingham they love the Gov'nor B	oo h	oo h	oo !

Now we all did what we could do.

Now Watergate does not bother me.

Does your conscience bother you? (tell the truth)

CHORUS

2nd guitar solo over 8 x D C G

then riff #1 again over 2 x of D C G

Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers

And they've been known to pick a tune or two

Lord they get me off so much

They pick me up when I'm feeling blue

Now how about you?

CHORUS 2 x

piano solo over 4-6 x D C G
