Verse 1:
F             C                           Am             G
  Everybody's got that girl, you know the one that got away
F          C                        Am                    G
  I really don't know why but I was thinking 'bout her today
F                          C
 I loved the way she'd say Georgia
          Am                       G
With that sweet little southern drawl
F                       C
 And how she whispered "baby"
       Am                        G
As the mossy oak shadows would fall
Dm                                      G
 If whiskey was a time machine, I would try to drink her back to me

Chorus:
          F            C
There are highways and byways
           Am                  G
Running east, west, north, and south
            F             C               Am                G
And you can sail into the harbor, see the planes touching down
      F               C
But I burned up every bridge
                      Am                G
Just like Sherman did coming down from Atlanta
      Dm            G                 F           C   Am       G
And I know there ain't no way back to Savannah, no, no, oh, woah



Verse 2:
F                  C                Am               G
  Yeah, I had some big city dreams, headed out on my own
       F                 C             Am                 G
To the bright lights and the neon sky, left her there all alone
F                       C             Am          G
 This photograph is the only map as a memory disappears
        Dm                                G   C
And the truth is you can't get there from here


Chorus:
          F            C
There are highways and byways
           Am                  G
Running east, west, north, and south
            F             C               Am                G
And you can sail into the harbor, see the planes touching down
      F               C
But I burned up every bridge
                      Am                G
Just like Sherman did coming down from Atlanta
      Dm            G                 F           C   Am       G
And I know there ain't no way back to Savannah, no, no, oh, woah

Break:

Dm                                      G
  If whiskey was a time machine I would try to drink her back to me


Chorus:
          F            C
There are highways and byways
           Am                  G
Running east, west, north, and south
            F             C               Am                G
And you can sail into the harbor, see the planes touching down
      F               C
But I burned up every bridge
                      Am                G
Just like Sherman did coming down from Atlanta
      Dm                          G   F           C   Am       G
And I know there ain't no way back to Savannah, no, no, oh, woah
    F   C           G
  No, no, no, oh, woah



Outro:
F             C                       Am                G
  Everybody's got that girl, I've got mine in black and white
F          C                      Am             G     F  C
  I really don't know why but I'm calling her tonight
