Atlanta Song Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I met her in Atlanta she
was a [G]dancing in a cafe
With a [D]price tag on her body and
a tombstone in her [A]eye
You could [D]tell she was not happy by
the [G]way she kept on staring
[D]Past the other side of nowhere
at a [A]man she'd like [D]to try
And [G]the makeup she had painted could
not hide the youthful motions
Of her [D]body fom the mu[A]sic or [D]the crowd[A]
[G]I started[D] like all the others with my
[F#]right hand in the [G]pocket
[D]While she [A]showed us everything
the law al[D]lowed
(Play it Pete Drake)
[ steel [G]- fiddle[D][A][D]
[G][A][D]
[A]][G]
Twenty [D]bucks an hour later my
[F#]one bedroom apartm[G]ent
I was [A]feeling weak from all
the seeds I'd [D]sown
She was sweet she was gentle
as she [F#]introduced my [G]body
To some [A]pleasures it had
never ever [D]known
When I [G]woke up in the morning [F#]she was
a laying there be[G]side me
[F#]Like a [C#]kitten with [A]her face
[C#]turned to [A]the sun
And a [C#]look of [D]satisfaction [A]on
her [F#]lips that make me wonder
[D]If she eve[A]r felt ashamed
of what [D]we'd done
So I left her in Atlanta...
