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

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


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


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

F,C,G

Break:

Yeah
DmDm                   G+G
 If whiskey was a time machine I would try to drink her back to me


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


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