Tone [G]
It was [D]198[C]9, my thoughts were [G]short my hair was long
[D]Caught somewhere bet[C]ween a boy and [G]man
[D]She was seven[C]teen and she was [G]far from in-between
It was [D]summertime in [C]Northern Mi[G]chigan
[D]Ah [C]ah [G]ah [D]Ah [C]ah [G]ah
[D]Splashing through the [C]sand bar [G]talking by the campfire
It's the [D]simple things in [C]life, like when and [G]where
We [D]didn't have no [C]internet But [G]man, I never will forget
The [D]way the moonlight [C]shined upon her [G]hair
And we were [D]trying different [C]things we were [G]smoking funny things
Making [D]love out by the [C]lake to our favorite [G]song
Sipping [D]whiskey out the [C]bottle, not [G]thinking 'bout tomorrow
Singing "[D]Sweet Home Ala[C]bama" all [G]summer long [D] [C] [G]
Singing "[D]Sweet Home Ala[C]bama" all [G]summer long
Catching [D]walleye from the [C]dock Watching the [G]waves roll off the rocks
She'll for[D]ever hold a [C]spot inside my [G]soul
We'd [D]blister in the [C]sun We couldn't [G]wait for night to come
To [D]hit that sand and [C]play some rock and [G]roll
While we were [D]trying different [C]things we were [G]smoking funny things
Making [D]love out by the [C]lake to our favorite [G]song
Sipping [D]whiskey out the [C]bottle, not [G]thinking 'bout tomorrow
Singing "[D]Sweet Home Ala[C]bama" all [G]summer long [D] [C] [G]
Singing "[D]Sweet Home Ala[C]bama" all [G]summer long
Now [D]nothing seems as [C]strange as when the [G]leaves began to change
Or [D]how we thought those [C]days would never [G]end
Some[D]times I'll hear that [C]song and I'll [G]start to sing along
And think [D]man I'd love to [C]see that girl a[G]gain
And we were [D]trying different [C]things we were [G]smoking funny things
Making [D]love out by the [C]lake to our favorite [G]song
Sipping [D]whiskey out the [C]bottle, not [G]thinking 'bout tomorrow
Singing "[D]Sweet Home Ala[C]bama" all [G]summer long [D] [C] [G]
Singing "[D]Sweet Home Ala[C]bama" all [G]summer long
And we were [D]trying different [C]things we were [G]smoking funny things
Making [D]love out by the [C]lake to our favorite [G]song
Sipping [D]whiskey out the [C]bottle, not [G]thinking 'bout tomorrow
