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

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


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


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

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


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


Break:
 Fm                       G           G
Fresh pile of dirt and a fake red ro-ose
      Fm         G
They carved her name
 G
Last one in a row


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


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

     F
Ooh ooh
     G
Ooh ooh
                    Fm
Through Alabama sto-one

     F
Ooh ooh
     G
Ooh ooh
                 Fm       F   G   G
Through Alabama sto-o-one
