Chords with lyrics
Georgia – Charlie Daniels
[Verse 1]
A augmentedA F# minorF#m G+G D MajorD
Lamps in the windows burnin' bright, over in Santa Fe tonight
A augmentedA F# minorF#m G+G D MajorD
Full moon shining down along the border
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
But the ground is hard and the night is black
G+G D MajorD
Over here by the railroad track
A augmentedA F# minorF#m G+G A augmentedA
And I wish to the Lord that I was back in Georgia
[Chorus]
A augmentedA D MajorD
Blue water in the evening sun
C# minorC#m F# minorF#m
Calling me when the day is done
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA G+G G MajorG D MajorD A augmentedA
Mama, mama pray for your son
[Verse 2]
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
All of my life I've been told
G+G D MajorD
That the LA streets was paved with gold
A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
Fame and fortune waiting to reward ya
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
But it didn't take long to understand
G+G D MajorD
California ain't the promised land
A augmentedA F# minorF#m G+G A augmentedA
But at least a man's a man in Georgia
[Chorus]
A augmentedA D MajorD
Blue skys in the mornin' there
C# minorC#m F# minorF#m
And there's green trees and breathin' air
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA G+G G MajorG D MajorD A augmentedA
Rockabye in my easy chair
[Bridge]
E MajorE A augmentedA
Well the St. Mary's River in the Georgia moonlight
D MajorD A augmentedA
Flowing under the Folkston Bridge
E MajorE A augmentedA
The sun comes up through the long leaf pine trees
D MajorD A augmentedA
Over 'round the Kingsland ridge
D MajorD
I may be here but my mind is still
G+G A augmentedA E MajorE
About 90 miles north of Jacksonville
[Verse 3]
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
Well I may not make it, it's a long, long road
G+G D MajorD
But mama I've paid all the debts I owe
A augmentedA F# minorF#m G+G D MajorD
And if I don't you know they gonna find me tryin'
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
They took my songs and they took my soul
G+G D MajorD
They made me hard and they made me old
A augmentedA F# minorF#m G+G A augmentedA
Well I just been born, but I feel just like I'm dying
[Chorus]
A augmentedA D MajorD
Blue water in the evening sun
C# minorC#m F# minorF#m
Calling me when the day is done
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA G+G G MajorG D MajorD A augmentedA
Mama, mama pray for your son
