Georgia(Cavaco chords)

	        
  
Am C G Am 
I saw someone looking out the window, the morning I felt younger than I was 
  
Am C G Am 
I put your last words inside my pocket 
the vowels started leaking through the gauze 
  
F Am  
and I slapped you in the face but you didn't feel a thing 
G Am 
so I cried on behalf of your loss 
  
Am C G Am 
and I turned around and ran yeah I ran right out of georgia 
and I fell at the sign of the cross 
  
Am C G Am 
I felt something weighing in my pocket 
the morning I felt older then I am 
  
Am C G Am 
I had learned to jump when needing jumping 
to swim when needed swimming so I swam 
  
F Am 
and my holy water's dirtier than money 
G Am 
but I sprinkle it all over birmingham 
  
F Am 
I'll keep going on until you tell me 
G Am 
honey honestly I never game a damn 
  
Am C G Am 
and I saw a lovely face reflected on the highway 
so I ran and took the cover from my fate 
  
Am C G Am 
I ran right into georgia with my fingers in my pocket 
and nearly tripping from the tenor and the weight 
  
Am C G Am 
as I rolled back in to town my feet were getting heavy 
and my leg and hand could hardly hold up straight 
  
Am C G Am 
with my shoulders weighing down on a body of a weaken 
by a story I am doomed to narrate 
  
Am C G Am 
I found something hidden in the floorboard 
the morning that was younger than the day 
  
Am C G Am 
folded hands upon your chest in mourning 
for the wood already started to decay 
  
Am C G Am 
and I made a storm of dust when I blew it off your casket 
in the basket full of flowers where you lay 
  
Am C G Am 
and I ran right out of town yeah I ran right out of georgia 
and I swear I heard you sing your last hoorah, hooray hooray hooray hooray
