Verse 1

Em                     B
I remember you back in nineteen-fifty-six.
D                             A
You had all the moves and you knew all the tricks.
C                            G
You left all the ladies in a hell of a fix,
F#7                        B7
When your voice took wings.
Em                          B
Then you'd shake around and oh, how'd you sing,
D                            A
Just an old boy from Memphis with a big diamond ring.
C                             G
A country girl's prayer and a city girl¡¯s dream;
F#7           B7
Hail the king.

Heaven  should be proud.

Verse 2

Em                         B
The fifties left town on a crowded dance floor.
D                        A
The sixties came in with a bang and a roar.
C                        G
The world heard a knock  it was Janice at the door;
F#7             B7
They let her in.
Em                                      B
And when it seemed this whole world was falling apart,
D                                   A
The houselights would fall and the  music would start.
C                         G
She'd be givin¡¯ us all a piece of her heart,
F#7        B7
Once again.

Chorus

(All)
          Am  G     D   D C D
But it¡¯s all right now.
Am       G       D
Keep on  singin' loud.
      Am  G     D   D C D
It¡¯s all right now.
Am      G         D
Heaven  should be proud.

It was October in  St. Louis town,
D                                     A
When we heard that the Free Bird had  fell to the ground;
C                    G
We all said a prayer before we went down,
F#7     B7
To play.
Em                      B
And Ronnie, my buddy,   above all the rest,
D                          A
I miss you the most and I  loved you the best,
C                                 G
