Lynyrd Skynyrd-Sweet Home Alabama - BPM - 98

[Loop section where riff is played over drums for first time and store - then just have solo sound on in background and either play little lead lines or the piano part or that chromatic riff which repeats in certain sections - Can try the F and C section]

[Intro - BPM 98 - riff on own - then riff and drums]
(notes - Wheels, Well I Heard, In Birmingham, Muscle Shoals)

[Verse]   
Big wheels keep on turning 
Carrying me home to see my kin 
Singing songs about the southland 
I'm missing old mammie once again 
And I think it's a sin, yes 
   
[Riff]     
Well I heard Mr. Young sing about her (oo, oo, oo)
Well I heard old Neil put it down  
Well I hope Neil Young will remember 
A southern man don't need him around anyhow 
    
[Chorus]   
Sweet home Alabama  
Where the skies are so blue  
Sweet Home Alabama  
Lord, I'm coming home to you  
    
[Solo 1]       
In Birmingham they loved the governor (oo, oo, oo F to C bit)
Now we all did what we could do  
Now Watergate does not bother me  
Does your conscience bother you?  
Tell the truth   
    
[Chorus]    
Here I come Alabama   
    
[Solo - Alabam ah, ah, ah]   
[Riff]    

[Verse]    
Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers (oo, oo, oo) 
And they've been known to pick a song or two (yes, they do) 
Lord they give me oh so much   
They pick me up when I'm feeling blue  
Now how about you?   
    
[Chorus] F to C bit at end   
[Chorus]
