           C    G9        C7     F              F/E              D7
Got a wife, got a family; earn my livin' with my hand.
          C                Am       D7             G7                 C G7
I'm a roller, in a steel mill, in downtown Birmingham.

[Verse 2]

C    G9                       C7  F       F/E          D7
My daddy, was a barber; and a most unsightly man.
           C                            Am
He was born in In Tusca-loosa,
             D7            G7                   C G7
But he died right here in Birmingham.

[Chorus]

C                  F
Birmingham, Birmingham;
C                       Am D7 G7
The greatest city in Alabam'.
C               C7                     F F/E D7
You can travel 'cross this entire land,
                        C                    G        C
But there ain't no place like Birmingham.

[Bridge 1]

C
Wife's named Mary, but she's called Marie,
F                                                          C
We live in a three room house with a pepper tree.
F                  F/E          D7                   G                  G7
I work all day in the factory; that's alright with me.

[Verse 4]

C                     G9                             C7
Got a big black dog, whose name is Dan,
F                  F/E                D7
Lives in my backyard, in Birmingham.
C                           E7          Am      D7              G7
He's the meanest dog in Alabam'; get 'em Dan!
