[Intro]*
E A 2x
[Verse] 
        E                   A
There's somethin' happenin' here
        E                A
What it is ain't exactly clear
          E                    A
There's a man with a gun, over there
        E             A
Tellin' me I got to beware
 
[Chorus]
 
(I think it's time we)

Everybody look - what's goin' down?
 
E A 2x
 
[Verse]
 
        E                  A
There's battle lines bein' drawn
         E                    A
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong

E A 2x
 
[Verse]
 
E                        A
What a field day for the heat
  E                      A
A thousand people in the street
        E                  A
Singin' songs and carryin' signs
       E                       A
Mostly sayin', "hooray for our side"
 
[Chorus]
 
(It's time we..)
E               D
Stop, children, what's that sound?
A                       C     E
Everybody look - what's goin' down?
 
[Interlude]
 
E A  2x
 
[Bridge]
 
E                A
Paranoia strikes deep
E                      A
Into your life it will creep
   E                          A
It starts when you're always afraid
            E                      A
Step out of line, the man come and take you away
 
[Chorus]
 
(I think it's time we)
E               D
Stop, children, what's that sound?
A                       C     E
Everybody look - what's goin' down?
(I think it's time we)
E               D
Stop, children, what's that sound?
A                       C         E
Everybody look - what's goin' you better?
(I think it's time we)
E          D
Stop, hey, what's that sound?
A                       C         E
Everybody look - what's goin' you better?
(I think it's time we)
E          D
Stop, hey, what's that sound?
A                       C     E
Everybody look - what's goin' down?

Lynyrd Skynyrd-Sweet Home Alabama

[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]
