Verse 1:

C Cmaj7 Fmaj7
Georgia, I swear I never seen such a smile
C Cmaj7 Fmaj7
Gorgeous enough to make an angel's heart run wild
Fm7
Your lazy eyes and small-town lies
Em7 Am7
Have got me in your spell
Fmaj7 Fm7
Your drive-in boys and back-seat noise
Em7 Am7
And oh, you learned so well
Fm7 [N.C.] Em7 Am7
Oh, oh, oh, so how was I to know
Dm7 Dm7/G
You got me, you got me right now

Verse 2:

Georgia, your daddy was high the night he dreamed up you
Georgia, the stars were flyin' the night that you came through
Crystal sea of lights
Oh, what a nice surprise
Oh, oh, oh, and now I miss you so
But baby, I'm comin' back to you

Chorus:

C Em7 F F/G
Georgia, we will be together, dear
C Em7 F Abdim
If they ever let me out of here
Am Am7/G
They will say that it's not true
D7/F#
But I did it all for you
Dm7 Dm7/G [C]
Georgia, won't you tell them for me dear

[repeat intro]

Verse 3 [partial]:

Georgia, girl I never lived through a night like that
Sure enough got your lovin' where I like it at
Moonlight through the pines
[4 bars deleted here]
Oh, oh, oh, but how were we to know
That wasn't moonlight, they were searchlights, oh no

[repeat chorus]
