Sweet Home Alabama

 
The two versions I could find are good, but they both miss 
some parts. So here is the complete song, unfortunately 
without the solo, but I am working on it. I don?t know if that?s 
the exact way to play it, but it sounds good so have fun with it. 
(Roli)

There are different ways to play along the verses and the chorus. I 
actually use all of them to make the song sound more exciting and they 
are also good to play the song with two guitars. The first possibility 
is to repeat the picking of the intro.The second one is just to play the 
chords like that and add one of the little licks each time before you 
start over: 
 
 
|---------2----|-----------0-----|----------3------| 
|---------3----|-----------1-----|----------0------| 
|---------2----|-----------0-----|----------0------| 
|--0--0---0----|-----------2-----|----------0------| 
|--------------|---3p0h3---3-----|----------2------| 
|--------------|-----------------|---3p0h3--3------| 
 
The little licks are as follows: 
       Lick 1      Lick2               Lick3 
|------------------||------------------||-------------------|| 
|------------------||------------------||-------------------|| 
|-------------2p0--||0-0-2p0-0-4p0-0-5b||----0-----0-----0--|| 
|-----2p0h2--------||------------------||0h2---0h2---0h2----|| 
|-0h2-------2------||------------------||-------------------|| 
|------------------||------------------||-------------------|| 
 
The third possibility is as follows: 
 
|--------------|--------------|-------------|-------------|| 
|--------------|--------------|-------------|-------------|| 
|--7--7--7--7--|--5--5--5--5--|-------------|-------------|| 
|--7--7--9--7--|--5--5--7--5--|--5--5----5--|----5-5-5-5--|| 
|--5--5--5--5--|--3--3--3--3--|--5--5----5--|----5-5-7-5--|| 
|--------------|--------------|--3--3----3--|----3-3-3-3--|| 
 
The riff you can hear between the verses and the chorus wasn?t easy to 
figure out, but here it is: 
 
|------------------|------------------|------------------| 
|------------------|------------------|------------------| 
|----------7----7--|------------5--5--|------------------| 
|----------7----7--|------------5--5--|------------------| 
|-7h8h9------------|--97?-5/7--------|---7?(let ring)-|

Here are the lyrics in case you don?t know them: 
 
SWEET HOME ALABAMA 
 
Big wheels keep on turning, 
carry me home to see my kin 
singing songs about the southland. 
I miss ole bamy once again and I think it's a sin.   Yeah. 
 
Well, I heard Mister Young sing about her. 
Well, I heard ole Neil put her down. 
Well, I hope Neil Young will remember 
a southern man don't need him around anyhow. 
 
Sweet home Alabama where the skies are so blue. 
Sweet home Alabama, Lord, I'm coming home to you. 
 
In Birmingham they love the Gov'nor.  Oooh hoo hoo. 
Now we all did what we could do. 
Now Watergate does not bother me. 
Does your conscience bother you, tell the truth. 
 
Sweet home Alabama where the skies are so blue. 
Sweet home Alabama, Lord, I'm coming home to you. 
 
Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers 
and they ve been known to pick a song or two. 
Lord, they get me off so much, 
they pick me up when I'm feeling blue, now how about you. 
 
Sweet home Alabama where the skies are so blue. 
Sweet home Alabama, Lord, I'm coming home to you. 
Sweet home Alabama where the skies are so blue. 
Sweet home Alabama, Lord, I'm coming home to you.
