Georgia Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]When I think of Georgia, [Bm]I think [C]of you
High [G]as a kite in the [D]second [Em]pew
You were my best friend,
the [Bm]light of my [C]youth
And [G]the only one back then that
[D]knew the whole [Em]truth

[Verse 2]
'Cause if [D]I told my m[Am]om
She would [C]scream at the top
of her [G]lungs
Saying [D]I don't b[Am]e lo[C]ng
I don't be[G]long
Sure [D]hope she's wrong
I wanted [Em]to be honest I wanted

[Verse 3]
[G]
to [C]be brave
But if [G]my grandmother knew
[D]She would roll in [Em]her grave
And my father would scream
He'd [G]scream [C]out in rage
He did not [G]want a daughter
[D]whose soul [Em]wasn't saved

[Verse 4]
[Em]He thought if I [D]told the wor[Am]ld
They would [C]not see me as
the same [G]girl
They'd say [D]I don't b[Am]elong[G]
[C]I don't belon[G]g
Well, that's where [D]he's [G]wrong

[Interlude 1]
[Am][G][C][G]
[D][Am]
[C][G][D]
[Em][Bm][C][G][D][Em]
There is a place [Bm]past the [C]Georgia

[Verse 5]
pines
And people [G]who welcome you
with [D]an open [Em]mind
And they say it'll take,
it'll [G]just [C]take some time
[G]'Til love, it belongs [D]to all
[Em]humankind
Oh, 'cause [D]I told the w[Am]orld
And they still [C]saw me as
the same [G]girl
[D]They listen to my [Am]songs
And they [C]made me feel like
I be[G]long
Yeah, they [C]make me feel like I be[G]long
Oh [C]Georgia,
[G]you[C] were wrong[Em]
