Virgil Spencer's got a nineteen inch Hitachi

D/c |D/c |D |D

And many deamons lingering

D |D |D |D

Friday night he pulled a gun to change the channel

D/c |D/c |D |D

Something that he picked up from the King

His wife remembers well the man she knew

Seems the dreams she had have all turned black and blue, she's

Am |Am |G |G

wasted years No

time for tears 'Cause there's

D |C |G |D

another chance and someday soon

Shining like the Alabama moon She's

passed out on the sofa a fifth of Jim Beam on the

floor She's packed a bag, she slips the

D |D |D/c |D/c

keys out of his pocket she's careful not to slam the

D |D |C |C

door and as she drives she rubs her

D |D |C |C

rosary she's never been so all alone, she never

Bm |Bm |Am |Am

felt so free she's got miles to

G |G |F |F

go, blind faith and

Em |[you get the idea.......

hope... 'cause there's another chance, and

someday soon Shining like the

Alabama moon she's looking for, her

promised land Out beyond the lights of

Birmingham

And as the rain falls down upon the interstate

Any doubts she had are all but washed away

One long look back at

Bir................ming...........ham... 'cause there's

another chance and someday soon

Shining like the Alabama moon

She's looking for her promised land

Out beyond the lights of Birmingham.......
