[Verse 1]
C                                                 F
It sure is cold tonight out here on this highway
        G                                    C
And my mind is on someone warm and far away

Although it's been all wrong
   F            Em         Dm       C
I know I'd make it right
G                                   C
If I could be in Birmingham tonight

[Verse 2]
C                                         F
I'd take her to that place we used to go
              G                                          C
Yeah, and we'd dance to that old jukebox just once more
                                           F Em Dm C
I'd hold her close until the morning light
G                                   C
If I could be in Birmingham tonight

[Chorus]
     G                        C
That Alabama moon would put a shine on
         D                        G F Em Dm
On this old faded love of hers and mine
    C
And I can't help but feel
          F           Em        Dm    C
That everything would be alright
G                                    C
If I could be in Birmingham tonight

[Solo]
| C F | Em | Dm | C G C |

[Verse 3]
C                                   F
Chicago ain't no place to be alone
             G                                            C
And this old storm here in my heart just keeps raging on
                                        F Em Dm C
But I know what to do to make it right
             G                                  C
I think I'll make a call to Birmingham tonight

[Chorus]
     G                        C
That Alabama moon sure put a shine on
  D                             G F Em Dm
This old faded love of hers and mine
    C
And I can't help but feel
          F           Em        Dm    C
That everything would be alright
G                                    C
If I could be in Birmingham tonight

[Chorus]
     G                        C
That Alabama moon would put a shine on
   D                              G F Em Dm
On this old faded love of hers and mine
    C
And I can't help but feel
          F           Em        Dm    C
That everything would be alright
G                                    C
If I could be in Birmingham tonight

[Outro]
G                                    C
If I could be in Birmingham tonight
