[Intro]
F C G C
F C G

[Verse]
F C G C
You look kinda like Jesus in those Italian paintings
F C G
You seem so familiar, maybe that's why
F C G C
You're accustomed to sorrow, it's part of your make-up
F C G C F C G C
You speak the language of hunger, so do I

[Verse]
F C G C
Where was your God? Where was your mother?
F C G
And where is the honour in hurting a child?
F C G C
Your blood on his hands, his voice like thunder
F C G C
You won't give him the pleasure of seeing you cry

[Chorus]
F C G C
Alabama boy, in-side a man
F C G
Living your life the best that you can
F C G Am
With a childhood full of 'not enough'
G F C G C F C G C
Well, you could've chose hate, but you chose love

[Verse]
F C G C
When you're in the room, it's there on your face
F C G
It's so clear to me that you're walking in Grace
F C G C
And I'm always amazed at the things that you do
F C G C
You illuminate me and those around you

[Chorus]
F C G C
Alabama boy, in-side a man
F C G
Living your life the best that you can
F C G Am
With a childhood full of 'not enough'
G F C G C
Well, you could've chose hate, but you chose love

[Bridge]
G7 C
And I don't even know you, but I've known you forever
F G
We were forged in the same holy fire
C
And those far away eyes, filled with sadness and joy
F
Contradiction, benediction
