Rain's falling, [A]
seems I hear your voice [E] calling, [Abm] it's alright.
[B] [Dbm]
A rainy [Abm] night in Georgia, [Dbm]
a rainy [Abm] night in Georgia,
[Gbm]
it seems like [A] it's raining all over [E] the world.

I feel like it's raining all over [E] the world.
Neon signs flashing, [A]
taxi cabs and buses passing [Abm]
through the night.
[E] A distant moaning of a train, [A]
seems to play a sad refrain [Abm]
to the night.

Find me a place in a boxcar, [A]
so I take my guitar [Abm]
to pass the time.

Late at night when it's hard to rest, [A] I'ma hold your picture to my chest [Abm]
and I feel fine.
Oh, [Dbm]

feel like it's raining [E]
all [Abm] over [D] the world.
It's not the rain.
