Well, I sure as hell [C#] didn't love her this much when [D#] I met her.
_ [G#] _ _ _ _ Much as I was [C#] just captured again [F] and again. _ _ _
She [C#] could turn her eyes away [D#] and still hold me [A#m] under.
_ [G#] _ _ A river of beauty [C#] and mystery [G#] pulling me in. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ And then when she told [C#] me her name, I knew I would die [G#] slowly.
_ _ I knew I was destined [C#] to live with this pain [A#m] every night.
[G#] _ _ [C#] For each night I [G#] stand with my father playing [F] our music.
[G#] _ _ We cry out her name [C#] and her memory under the [A#m] lights.
_ [G#] _ And each [C#] night I pray _ _ I'll forget about [G#] Georgia.
_ _ Cause she'll never love me like I know love's [C#] supposed to be.
_ _ Each night I pray I'll forget about [G#] Georgia.
_ _ But a part of me hopes [C#] that she'll [G#] never forget about [A#m] me.
_ [G#] _ _ Oh, a part of me hopes [Fm] that she'll never [G#] forget about [F] me.
[G#] _
_ _ _ _ [A#] _ _ _
We made love for the first time [C#] in a hotel [G#] in San [A#] Francisco.
_ [G#] _ _ A night so perfect I [C#] tried to forget about it now.
[G#] _ _
[C#] Oh, Ray Charles is singing [G#] her name like rain on my [A#m] window.
_ _ I want to release her [C#] but I can't begin to [G#] know how.
_ _ So I [C#] say, Ray, _ let me forget [G#] about Georgia.
_ _ Cause she'll never love me like I know [C#] love's supposed to be.
_ _ I say, Ray, _ let me forget about [A#] Georgia. _
[G#] _ _ Oh, but a part of me hopes [C#] that she'll [G#] never forget about [A#m] me.
_ [G#] _ _ A part of me hopes that she'll never forget [A#m] about [G#] me.

_ _ All right, so that was a song I wrote about this gal here in San Francisco I met.
[F#] Name was Georgia. _
She's a good gal.
It was a good time.
But when we split, _ _ it was the hardest thing for me.
Cause I'd have to go and play that song with Dad.
When I play that song, Georgia, with Dad.
It was impossible to forget about her because we'd be singing that song.
So I kind of grew to dread that part of the night.
And I just eventually wrote a song called Forget About Georgia.
And that was that song.
_ And here's another song.
For, _ _ this one I just wrote.
I thought I'd just play it.
See what you guys think.

_ [G#] _ _ _ [C#] _ _ [F#] _ _
_ [F#] _ _ _ [D] _ _ [B] _ [C] _
_ _ [F#] _ _ [D] _ [B] Cedar trees, the morning [F#] air, the way the dew sits on her hair, [F#m] so peacefully below a Texas [G#] sky.
_ _ [C#m] I think I'll leave her lying there [C#] and take a walk, I don't know [F#] where, just bathing in the sunlight in [B] my life.
_ _ I hear the sound of windy leaves and summer birds and gently [F#m] flowing rivers, creeks and pools [G#] up from the spring.
_ [C#m] The music of the water [G#] on the rocks is getting louder as [F#] I walk towards whatever [B] life may bring. _ _ _ _
_ _ Just _ _ outside _ [C#m] of Austin, [G#] _ _ _ _
_ _ [F#] high _ _ _ as I've ever been.
[C] _ _ [A] _ _
[D] _ _ [B] Just _ _ [F#] _
outside _ [F#m] _ of _ [G#] Austin, _ [C#m] I think I fell [F#] in love with you [B] again.
_ _ [F#] _ _
[D] _ [B] I went out to play the other [F#] day, the city and its city [F#m] ways, a time and place for everything [G#] you'd say.
_ [C#] But I just want to sit at [G#] home and ride my horse and write a [F#] song, a little bit of weed and [B] I'm okay.
_ Those nights when it's just you and me [F#] and maybe soon we could be [F#m] three, it ain't so bad a place to [G#] raise a kid.
_ [C#m] Or maybe we should wait a [C#] while, no need to hurry nothing, [F#] I'm just saying I'd be happy [B] if we did.
_ _ _ _ _ _ Just _ _ outside _ _ [C#m] of [G#] Austin, _ [C#] _ _ _ _ [F#] high _ _ _ as I've [B] ever been.
[C] _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
Just [F#] _ outside _ [F#m] of _ _ [G#] Austin, _ [C#m] I think I fell [C#] in love with you [B] again.
_ _ _ _ _ [C#m] I think I fell [E] in love with you _
_ [B] again. _ _ _ _ _
