Intro: D C G C G D

V1:
D C
He grew up on the banks of the Tennessee

G C G D
He?d work those honky tonks and burn out the moonlight

D C
A small town boy with big city dreams

G C G D
Of one day seeing his name in the marquis lights

Em G
They say what don?t kill you only makes you stronger

Em A
But I don?t know if he could wait much longer

Chorus 1:
D G
To go from Muscle Shoals up to Music Row (Harm.)

C G D
And see all of the places in between

D
While those wheels turn slow (Harm.)

G
He?ll never make it to the show (Harm.)

C G
Without knowing that road from Muscle Shoals
(Harm.)
F C D
To Music Row (Harm.)

D C G C G D


V2:
D C
He kept working hard and playing his shows

G C G D
Then a man came in one night from Tennessee (Harm.)

D C
He said, ?Boy you got what it takes to be on top!?

G A
Now all that hard work is just set him free
(Harm.)
Chorus 2:
D G
To go from Muscle Shoals up to Music Row (Harm.)

C G D
And all of the places in between

D
While those wheels turn slow (Harm.)

G
He?d never make it to the show (Harm.)

C G
Without knowing that road from Muscle Shoals
(Harm.)
F C D
To Music Row (Harm.)

Bridge:
F C
He turned those Big River dreams into Nashville screams

F C D
And the music flowed from the fame

C G
He turned those Alabama nights into big show lights

A G D
Now everybody knows his name (Harm.)

SOLO: D G C G D
D G C G A

Final Chorus:
D G
He went from Muscle Shoals up to Music Row (Harm.)

C G D
And all of the places in between

D
While those wheels turn slow (Harm.)

G
He?d never make it to the show (Harm.)

C G
Without knowing that road from Muscle Shoals
(Harm.)
F C D
To Music Row (Harm.)

C G
Yeah, he had to know that road from Muscle Shoals (Harm.)

To Music Row

F C D
To Music Row

F C D
The road to Music Row

F C D
