you looked real calm as we made our way up the walk



G D Cadd9 G

there were lazy kisses, hands brushing and small talk



G D Em C G D G

the moon was high, your smooth face was dry, and the kudzu grew



G D Cadd9 G

and the stars fell on alabama



G D G

and your eyes filled up with light



G D Em C G D G

and the stars fell on alabama







the warm earth underneath us gave way

dry grass crinkled like paper as a breeze came in across the bay

cold clean water nearby, glimmered in your eyes

and your pistol glistened.



and the stars fell on alabama

and your eyes filled up with light

and the stars fell on alabama



but if you think i'll take a bullet for you - you're dreaming.
