Breakfast In Birmingham

VERSE 1

-5b 6 -5b 7 7 -5b
She was still on my mind

6 6 -5b 7 -7 -5b
when I crossed the state line

4 4 6 5 6 6 6 4
I walked out a lit-tle too fast

-5b 7 7 -7 6 -5b 7 7 -7
I said some things that I did-n’t mean

6 6 8 8 6 7 7 5
And I should have ta-ken them back

4 4 -2b -4 -4 -4 4
But I knew when I said them

7 -5b -7 -7 -7 7 -6b
that voice in my head whis-pered

6 8 -7 6 -7 -6b 6
Man when are you gon-na learn

6 -5b 7 7 -5b 6 -5b 7 -7 -5b
You told her good-bye and left with your pride

6 6 -7 -6 6 -7 -4
But you’re gon-na eat those words

CHORUS

6 6 -7 7 -7 8 -7 -7 6 8 7
And now I’m hav-ing break-fast in Bir-ming-ham

-5b 6 -6b 6 6 4
Tried to swal-low my pride

6 7 -7 6 -7 -7 6 8 7
I got a plate-ful of mem-o-ries

And not much ap-pe-tite

There ain’t noth-ing like a

Cold cup of cof-fee and a stale a-pol-o-gy

-2b -3b 4 -2b -3b 4 3 5 4

5 -4 -4 4 2
