[Chorus]
G D C G
Miss those Georgia Pineywoods
G D C G
Won-der if they miss me
G D C G
Lonesome for those Pineywoods
G D C G
Ancient home of the Creek and the Cherokee and me
[Verse 1]
G C
I was born in the Georgia Pineywoods
G D G
Fifteen miles from the country store
G C
No T.V., or gold plated shiney goods
G D G
Cracked up linoleum on the floor
[Verse 2]
G C
We had cows in the back fields grazin'
G D G
Chickens a cluckin' out in the pen
G C
Life was good but it's amazin'
G D G
How I didn't see that back then.
[Chorus]
G D C G
Miss those Georgia Pineywoods
G D C G
Won-der if they miss me
G D C G
Lonesome for those Pineywoods
G D C G
Ancient home of the Creek and the Cherokee and me
[Verse 3]
G C
I would look for Indian arrowheads
G D G
I was happy as Borden's cow
G C
I lost all my Indian arrowheads
G D G
They ain't no good to me here no how.
[Verse 4]
G C
I get paid now by the hour
G D G
And lead my typical suburb life
G C
Got credit cards and buyin' power
G D G
An I owe more money than Caesar's wife
[Chorus]
G D C G
Miss those Georgia Pineywoods
G D C G
Won-der if they miss me
G D C G
Lonesome for those Pineywoods
G D C G
Ancient home of the Creek and the Cherokee and me
* Some folks sing Cree instead of Creek in the Chorus. The Cree weren't a Georgia tribe, the Creek were.
