G
Somewhere out in Texas, somewhere west of Abilene
C
Empty bottles, Copenhagen cans, and pumpkin seeds
Em
Highway lines and stars at night as far as you can see
B7
Every stop we're switching off so we don't fall asleep


[Pre-Chorus]
G           C
Oh we start talking 'bout the things we're missing
Em      B7
Oh yeah we can both agree


[Chorus]
     G
That sometimes it's Alabama
C
Good friends and family
Em
Sometimes it's chasing country songs
B7
Up there in Tennessee
G                            C
Sometimes it's a mix of everything
Em
But it's mostly just a girl from Mississippi


[Verse 2]
G
There's a feeling that you can't explain
C
Your name on a marquee sign
Em
The looks on all their faces when the song is hittin' just right
B7
Every night at closing time there's something on our mind


[Chorus]
    G
And sometimes it's Alabama
C
Good friends and family
Em
Sometimes it's chasing country songs
B7
Up there in Tennessee
G                            C
Sometimes it's a mix of everything
Em
But it's mostly just a girl from Mississippi


[Pre-Chorus]
G                 C
Oh livin' out the words we're singing
   Em            B7
Oh yeah it don't change a thing


[Chorus]
G
Sometimes it's Alabama
C
Good friends and family
Em
Sometimes it's chasing country songs
B7
Up there in Tennessee
G                            C
Sometimes it's a mix of everything
Em
But it's mostly just a girl from Mississippi
