Alabama Sky


{Intro} D G/D D A/D D G/D D A/D D {Verse 1} D Em I've seen him plow a field of corn all day. That's reality. G A D His overalls are black with dirt, but his face is still full of dignity. Em A He talks about the weather and he can tell you when it's gonna rain. G A D G/A D Told me 'bout the flood of twenty nine that washed the crops away. {Chorus - Variation 1} G F#m7 Gmaj7 Underneath that Alabama sky, Em A D Grandpa told me 'bout the things he'd seen.
