[Intro 1]
[G][Gsus4][C][G][Gsus4][G]
[D][Dm][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Lamps in the windows burn[Em]in' bright,
[F]over in Santa [C]Fe tonight
[G]Full moon shining dow[Em]n
along [F]the bor[C]der
[G]But the gound is hard and the [Em]night is black
[F]Over here by the rai[C]lroad track
And I [G]wish to the Lord that
[Em]I was back in [F]Georgi[G]a
Blue water in the [C]indian sun,

[Verse 2]
[Bm]
Calling me when the [Em]day is done
[F]Mama mama pra[C]y for your
son
[G][Gsus4][G][Dm][G]

[Verse 3]
All of my life [Em]I've been told
That [F]the LA streets was [C]paved with gold
[G]Fame and fortune wai[Em]ting to rewar[F]d ya[C]
But it [G]didn't take long to [Em]understand
[F]California ain't the pro[C]mised land
[G]But at least a m[Em]an's a man in geo[F]rgia[G]
Blue skys in the [C]mornin' there And there's

[Verse 4]
[Bm]
green trees and [Em]breathin' air
[F]Rockabye in my eas[C]y chair
[G][Gsus4]

[Verse 5]
[C][G]
Well it [D]seems every river
in the [G]Georgia moonlight
[C]Flowing up where fol[G]ks are free
[D]Tthe sun comes up through
the [G]lonely pine trees
[C]Over 'round the Kin[G]gsland ridge
I [C]maybe here but my [G]mind is still
[F]About 90 miles [C]north of Jack[G]sonville[D]

[Verse 6]
Well I [G]may not make it, it's a
[Em]long long road
But [F]mama I've paid all the [C]debts I owe
[G]And if I don't you know [Em]they
gonna find me [F]try[C]in'
They [G]took my songs
and they [Em]took my soul
They [F]made me hard
and they [C]made me old
Hell I [G]just been born,
but I [Em]feel just like I'm [F]dy ing
[G](refrain)
