Chords for Lukas Nelson - Forget About Georgia (Live at the BBC)

One final question, because I'm intrigued by this.
Beautiful guitar you have with you.
Is that called a Gibson Hummingbird or something like that?
Yeah, this is a J-200.
A classic guitar.
Bob Dylan model, actually.
Well, that's what I was going to come to.
And you've got a little bit of graffiti on that.
Tell us a little bit about that.
I was just telling them earlier.
So this is actually kind of funny.
I had just bought this guitar.
I didn't buy it, Gibson sent it to me.
And then I had it on Dad's bus.
We were out on the road.
And I set it down on the couch.
And I left for a minute and came back.
And I guess he thought he was supposed to sign it for an auction or something.
_ _ _ So that's Dad there.
_ _ That's the kind of story you could not get from anyone other than Mr.
Lucas Nelson.
Thank you.
_ _ All right.
A while back, I went out with this girl.
Her name was Georgia.
And I had, at the time, I was playing out on the road with my dad
and playing guitar for him.
And we played that song, Georgia, on my mind every night.
And that kind of made things a little difficult.
So I wrote a song called Forget About Georgia.
And here it is. _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Well, I sure as hell didn't love her this much when I met her.
_ _ _ Much as I [Db] was just captured again [Bbm] and again.
_ [Ab] _ _ She could turn her eyes [Eb] away and still hold me [Bbm] under _
[Ab] _ _ A river of beauty and [Db] mystery pulling me in.
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ And then when she told [Db] me her name, [Ab] I knew I would die slowly.
_ _ I knew I was [Bbm] destined to live with this pain every night.
[Ab] _ _
_ [Db] For each night I stand with my [Eb] father playing [Ab] our music.
_ _ We cry out her name [Db] and her memory under the lights.
[Ab] _ And each night I [Db] pray I'll forget about _ _ Georgia.
Cause she'll never love me like I know a love's supposed [Db] to be.
_ Each night I pray _ [E] I'll forget about _ [Ab] Georgia. _
But a part of me hopes that she'll never [Eb] forget about [Bbm] me. _
[Ab] _ Oh, a part of me hopes that she'll [Eb] never forget about me.
[Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ We made love for the first time in a [Db] hotel in San [Ab] Francisco.
_ _ _ A night so perfect [Db] I try to forget about [Bbm] it now. _ _ _
[Db] And Ray Charles is singing her [Eb] name like rain [Abm] on [Bbm] my window.
_ [Ab] _ I want to release [Db] her but I can't begin to know [Bbm] how.
_ [Ab] So [Db] I say, Ray, _ let me [Ab] forget about Georgia. _
Mmm, she'll never love me like I know a [Db] love's supposed to be.
_ _ I say, Ray, _ let me forget [Ab] about _ Georgia.
_ But a part of me [Db] hopes that she'll never forget [Eb] about me.
[Ab] _
Oh, a part of me hopes that she'll never forget about me.
_ _ _ A part of me [Db] hopes that she'll never forget [Ab] about me.
_ _ _ _ [C] _ [Ab] _

[Fm] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _

_ [Ab] _ _ [Bbm] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[N] Thank you.
Thank you all very much.
