B
I go back to Alabama
F#
Take a look at my life
E
What the fuck happened here?
E
I guess it's what they meant when
E
They payed the price
B
I go back to Alabama
F#
Take a look at my life
E
Where are the trailer parks?
E
And where all the Christmas lights?


[Pre-Chorus]
F#
I had a boyfriend
G#m
He came from this town
E                             F#
We used to pretend we were married and start again
G#m
He read the Bible
E
Showed me what Jesus said
F#                     B
He said only read the red


[Chorus]
B  F#    E                     G#m        F# B
I want Jesus to take me out of this life, baby
B      F#       E
And I talk to Jesus
                     G#m       F#   B
And ask him if he'll think of saving me
B F# E G#m F# B
Ooh...


[Verse 2]
B
I go back to Alabama
F#
Take a look at my life
E
Nothing looks familiar here
E
No one even left that I like
B
I go back to Alabama
F#
Take a look at my life
E
I was so much happier when
E
I was gonna be your wife


[Pre-Chorus 2]
F#
We had a deal and
G#m
I fucked it up when
E                         F#
I made the decision to become someone
G#m
We had the one thing
E
That no one ever had
F#
True love
            B
It's true love


[Chorus]
B   F#  E                   G#m        F# B
I want Jesus to take me out this life, baby
B          F#
And I talk to Jesus
E                      G#m      F#   B
And ask him if he'll think of saving me
B F# E G#m F# B
Ooh...
B F# E G#m F# B
Ooh...


[Verse 3]
B                           G#m
I never meant to hurt you, baby
                    E
It's so hard to be true
                          F#
In this world where everything's so black and blue
G#m                          E
I never meant to hurt you darling
                     F#
It's so hard to be good
                        B
In this world where you do (what you know you shouldn't)


[Chorus]
B    F#  E                   G#m       F# B
I want Jesus to take me out this life, baby
B          F#
And I talk to Jesus
E                      G#m      F#   B
And ask him if he'll think of saving me
B F# E G#m F# B
Ooh...
