[G] If [C] I had a [Am] heart of gold, as some [Gm]
folks I know, I'd up and sell my [Am] heart of gold and
head north [Gm] with the dough.
[C]
But I don't have a heart [Am] of gold, my heart's not [C] even lead.
It's made of clay, no [Am] Georgia clay, and that's [Gm] why my heart is red.

[C] I wonder why [Am] red clay's so red and Georgia sky's so blue.
I wonder why [C]
it's [Am] yes to me, [G] but [C] yes sir, sir to you.
[G] [C] I wonder why [Am] the sky's so blue and [C] why the plains so red.
Why down south is always [Am] down and never [Gm] up in the sand.
I wonder why.
