Start Jamming...
Reach back and get a tune I wrote a long time ago.
I was living in Corpus Christi when I wrote this.
[D] It's called A Rainy Night in Georgia.
[A] [D] [C]
[D] [C]
[D] Huddled by my suitcase, [G]
found a kind of warm place [D] to spend the night.
Headed for, [G]
seems I hear your voice a [D]-callin' me.
[Bm] A [F#m] rainy night in Georgia, [B] a [Bm] rainy [F#m] night in Georgia.
[Em] Lord, it's raining [G] all [D] over the world.
[C] [D]
Neon signs flashing, [G]
taxi cabs and buses are [D] passing through the night.
But this thundering moaning of a [G] train seems to be a sad [D] refrain.
But
[B] it's a rainy [F#m] night in Georgia, [Bm] a rainy old [F#] night in Georgia.
[Em] Lord, it's raining [G] all [D] over the world.
[C] [Am]
[D] [C] How many [D] times I've wondered, [A] [C] but it still comes out [D] the same.
[G] No matter [F#m] how you look at it [Em] or think about it,
[G] you just [F#m] got to do [D] your own thing.
[C] [D]
[F#m] [Em]
[G] [F#m] [Em]
[D] [C]
[D] [A]
I find me a place in a boxcar.
[G] I take out my old guitar to [D] pass some time.
Late at night when it's hard to [G] rest, I hold your picture to my chest.
[D] And I'm all alone.
[Bm]
[F#] It's raining in Georgia, [F#m] [Bm]
a rainy old [F#m] night in Georgia.
[B] Sometimes it feels [G] like [D] it rains all over the world.
[C]
I'm [D] talking about rain.
[C]
[D] [A] [C]
[D] [A] [C]
[Am] [D]
[N]
Thank y'all.
[E] [Em]
[N] Everybody in here knows what
