Rainy Night in Georgia -  Lyrics -  Brook Benton chords
Start Jamming...
[A] [Bm] [C]
[F#m] [D] [C]
[A] Hoovering by my [D] suitcase, [G] trying to find a warm [F#m] place to spend the night.
Heavy rain falling, [G] seems I hear your voice [D] calling, it's alright.
[F#m]
[Bm] A rainy [F#m] night in Georgia, [Bm] a [F#m] rainy night in Georgia.
I feel, it [Em] seems like it's [G] raining all over [D] the world.
[C] I feel like it's raining [Em] all over the [D] world.
Neon signs are flashing, [G]
taxi cabs and buses [D] passing through the night.
[F#m]
[D] A distant morning of a train, [G] seems to play a sad [D] refrain to the night.
A [Bm] rainy [F#m] night in Georgia, [Bm] such a [F#m] rainy night in Georgia.
[G] Lord, I believe it's raining [D] all over the world.
[Em] I feel like it's raining [D] all over the world.
[C]
How many [D] times I wondered, [C]
it still [D] comes out the same.
[G] No matter [F#m] how you look [Em] at it or think of it, [G] it's life [F#m] [Em] and you just [D] got to play the game.
[C]
[D] [Em]
[Am] [D] I can't be a place in a boxcar, so [G] I take my guitar to [F#m] pass some time.
[D] Late at night when it's hard to rest, [G] I hold your picture to my chest [F#m] and I feel fine.
[D] But [Bm]
it's a rainy [F#m] night in Georgia, [Bm]
baby it's a rainy [F#m] night in Georgia.
[Em]
[G] I feel it's raining [D] all over the world.
Kinda [Em] lonely now, [G] and it's raining all over [D] the world.
[Bm] [Em] Oh, have you ever been [G] lonely, people?
And you feel that [F#m] it was raining all [G] over this man's world.
You're talking really [D] raining, raining, raining, raining, raining, raining, raining, raining, [G] raining.
Raining, raining, raining all [F#m] over the world.
[Bm] Well I said [Em] now
