A                   D
I was sad and blue, I was down-hearted, too
   A               E               A  E
It seemed like the whole world was lost 
    A                       D
And I took a chance, and we happened to dance
       A           E        A
To the tune of the Alabama waltz.

D                 A
Waltz, Waltz, the Alabama waltz
B                      E            E7
There all my fears and tears were lost 
A                        D
There in your arms, with all of your charms
   A             E       A
We danced to the Alabama waltz.
