Sad Looking Moon        Alabama 
 
(G)        Em                    A       C                    G 
       I thought that you could fly  I thought that you had wings 
    Em            A             C           G 
I guess that I believed you'd never say goodbye 
Dsus4                           D   Dsus4                     D 
But my world stopped turning 'round The stars turned upside down 
Dsus4                   D           G 
It knocked me to the ground on my knees. 
 

              Em           D      C             G 
Now there's a sad looking moon  Shining down on me 
          Em          Bm   C                G 
There's a sad looking sky  As far as I can see 
       Dm     C6/9          C                     A 
I've always believed And thought the stars could see 
           G           D      C             G 
There's a sad looking moon shining down on me 
 
go to lead, then 2nd verse 
 
   Em                 A       C          G 
I share with you my dream  I gave you everything 
     Em          A          C            G 
I opened up my heart And I gave you my ring 
Dsus4              D     Dsus4                   D 
I spent days and nights  Just thinking bout the time 
Dsus4               D          G 
when you would be mine all my life

Dsus4 is the D form and you just add your pinky to the third fret.  If you 
do that it makes the chord change simple.  See following.
