Feelin' Better

	  		D 
Moved on down to sweet home Alabama in 1974 
D 
Had to get out of Music City and I had to get off the road 
D 
Woman, she left and the people wouldn't let me sing nothin' but them old sad songs 
D 
Had to get high so I wouldn't cry, you know they hit pretty close to home 
            G   D 
I'm feelin' better 
C            G           D 
Now that I'm back on the road 
              G   D     
Getting' it together 
        C         G      D 
Between Macon and Muscle Shoals
 
I started turnin' up loud and looking at the crowd and bendin' them guitar strings 
Knew all the while, though it was my style could they ever forget my name 
Rocked 'ed in Raleigh, knocked 'em outta Knoxville, just couldn't do no wrong 
People went wild and the band said, "Child, better keep on playin' your songs" 
 
Chorus 
 
Well, my life ain't the same and I had to change and I hope this music will show 
A little bit less of cryin' in the beer and a little of my own soul 
Waylon and Toy and all them boys, I wanna say thanks to you 
Your fiddle and your steel make me play what I feel and I don't feel lovesick blues 
 
Chorus 
 
Bridge: 
           G   D        C        G    D 
All came together in my sweet Alabama home 
                   G D               C        G    D   
And I'm through forever of tryin' to put everybody on 
                G   D         C            D           D  
And I'm feelin' better, I got hurt but I'm back on the road 
              G   D                      C 
Getting' it together.had to eat a little cornbread 
          D                        
I've been eatin' that cornbread, sleepin' on a featherbed 
C                                                 G  
Drinkin' that homegrown, writin' some new songs, do it on, get home 
D                     
Eat a little cornbread, lovin on a featherbed 
C                                            G                        D 
Smokin' that homegrown, write a few new songs.this here music's homegrown
