Rainy Night in Georgia - Tony Joe White
[Intro]
Dmaj7 Cmaj7 Dmaj7 Cmaj7
[Verse 1]
Dmaj7 G
Hov'rin by my suitcase, trying to find a warm place to
Dmaj7 Dmaj7
spend the night.
Dmaj7 G
Heavy rain a falling, seems I hear your voice calling
Dmaj7 Dmaj7
it's alright.
[Chorus]
Bm7 F#m7 Bm7 F#m7
A rainy night in Georgia, a rainy night in Georgia, I believe it's
Em G Dmaj7 Cmaj7 Dmaj7 Cmaj7
raining all over the world.
[Verse 2]
Dmaj7
Neon signs a-flashing
G Dmaj7 Dmaj7
Taxicabs and buses passing through the night.
Dmaj7
The distant moaning of a train,
G Dmaj7 Dmaj7
seems to play a sad refrain to the night.
[Chorus]
Bm7 F#m7 Bm7 F#m7
A rainy night in Georgia, a rainy night in Georgia, I believe it's
Em G Dmaj7 Cmaj7 Dmaj7 Cmaj7
raining all over the world.
[Bridge]
Cmaj7 Dmaj7 Cmaj7 Dmaj7
How many times I've wondered, it still comes out the same. No
G F#m Em7
matter how you look at it, think of it, you
G F#m7 Em7 Dmaj7 Cmaj7 Dmaj7 Dmaj7
just got to do your own thing.
[Verse 3]
Dmaj7
I find me a place in a box car,
G Dmaj7 Dmaj7
so I take my guitar out to pass some time.
Dmaj7
Late at night when it's hard to rest,
G Dmaj7 Dmaj7
I hold your picture to my chest and I'm alright.
[Chorus]
Bm7 F#m7 Bm7 F#m7
A rainy night in Georgia, a rainy night in Georgia, I believe it's
Em G Dmaj7 Cmaj7 Dmaj7 Cmaj7
raining all over the world.
[Outro] (Repeat and fade out)
