[D] [A] [D] [C]
[D] [C]
[A] Over and by my [D] suitcase, [G] trying to find a warm [F#m] place to spend the night.
[D]
Heavy [F#m] rain falling, [G] seems I hear your voice [D] calling, it's alright.
[F#m] A [Bm] rainy [F#m] night in Georgia, [Bm] a rainy [F#m] night in Georgia, it [Em] seems like it's [G] raining all over [D] the world.
[C] I feel like it's [Em] raining all [D] over the world.
Neon signs are flashing, [G]
taxicabs and [D] buses passing through the [F#m] night.
[D] A distant moaning of a train [G] seems to play a sad refrain [D] to the night.
A [Bm] rainy [F#m] night in Georgia, [Bm] such a rainy [F#m] night in Georgia, [G] Lord I believe it's raining [D] all over the world.
[Em] I feel like it's [Am] raining all [D] over the world.
[C]
How many [D] times I wondered, [C]
it [D] still comes out the same.
[G] No matter [F#m] how you look at [Em] it or think of it, [G] it's life [F#m] and [Em] you just got [A] to play the [Dm] game.
[A] [C]
[D] [Em]
[Am] [D] I find me a place in a [G] boxcar, so I take my guitar [F#m] to pass some time.
[D] Late at night when it's hard [G] to rest, I hold your picture to my [D] chest and I feel fine.
But [Bm]
it's a rainy [F#m] night in Georgia, [Bm] baby it's a [F#m] rainy night in Georgia.
[Em] [G] I feel it's [D] raining all over the world.
[Em] And a lonely night and [G] it's raining [D] all over the world.
[Em] Oh, have you [G] ever been lonely people, [D] and you [F#m] feel that it was raining [D] all [Em] over this man's world.
[G] You're talking about [D] raining, raining, raining, raining, raining, raining, raining, [Em] raining, raining, raining, raining, [G] raining, raining, raining [F#m] over the world.
[Bm] Oh, I said now.
[Em] [G]
