D              G         D                G             D
Hoverin' by my suitcase, tryin' to find a warm place to spend the night
           G        D                       G             D           Bm
Heavy rain fallin', seems I hear your voice callin' "It's all right."

                 F#m    Bm                 F#m    Em
A rainy night in Georgia, a rainy night in Georgia
                   G                    D     Em
It seems like it's rainin' all over the world
                 G                    D
I feel like it's rainin' all over the world

D            G         D                   G       D
Neon signs a-flashin', taxi cabs and buses passin' through the night
          G            D              G                  D            Bm
A distant moanin' of a train seems to play a sad refrain to the night

                 F#m    Bm                      F#m    Em
A rainy night in Georgia, such a rainy night in Georgia
                     G                    D    Em
Lord, I believe it's rainin' all over the world
                 G                    D
I feel like it's rainin' all over the world

Cmaj7            Bm       Cmaj7
How many times I wondered
                       Bm
It still comes out the same
Em        D                     Em
No matter how you look at it or think of it
     G     Em           Cmaj7  G        D
It's life, and you just got to play the game

  D                    G        D            G         D
I find me a place in a box car, so I take my guitar to pass some time
                        G              D                 G               D
Bm
Late at night when it's hard to rest I hold your picture to my chest and I feel fine

                          F#m    Bm                            F#m    Em
But it's a rainy night in Georgia, baby, it's a rainy night in Georgia,  I
          G                    D    Em                          G

world
                       G              Em
Oh, have you ever been lonely, people?
                         G                           D    Em
And you feel that it was rainin' all over this man's world
                G     D
You're talking about, rainin', rainin', rainin', rainin', rainin', rainin', rainin',
                                                    G
rainin', rainin' rainin', rainin', rainin' over the world
