[Verse]
G          G     C       G
I took the train down to Georgia
G      D             C          G
Then I remembered we weren't in the state
G            G               C               G
Eight months ago you told me you were off to Georgia
G     D              C        G
Not Atlanta but some far away place.
G              G          C        G
Packed up your things in Eugene, Oregon
G          D                   C         G
Hopped to Minnesota, kissed the lakes goodbye
G         G       C            G
Right before, a brief stop in Boston
G           D         C         G
Just to give me one last hard time
[Chorus]
Em               D
And I had this dream
         C                   G
As these tracks rolled me to sleep
          Em              D
That this train turned around
    C               G
And headed straight east
         Em       D                     C
It didn't stop, until we reached the black sea
       Em           D       G
And to Georgia with you and me
[Verse]
G       G           C       G
I remember when you came to visit
G        D                 C            G
Bought us a ticket for the show that night
G              G              C                 G 
Still have the note, that you left me after two days
G                D           C          G
A pushpin in the wall, just under my light. 
G         G           C          G
It was a matinee last Wednesday evening
G        D            C                G
When the girl on screen brought you to life
G            G               C           G
It wasn't how pretty, or even how funny she was
  G           D       C         G
She just made you sharp as a knife
[Chorus]
Em               D
And I had this dream
         C                   G
As these tracks rolled me to sleep
          Em              D
That this train turned around
    C               G
And headed straight east
         Em       D                     C
It didn't stop, until we reached the black sea
       Em           D       G
And to Georgia with you and me
[Verse 2]
G         G                  C              G
So in six months, there will only be a year left
G          D                 C          G
To do all the things, you got left to do
G         G          C            G
Maybe then we could meet in Atlanta
G             D           C         G
And the Georgia I'm in will be yours too
G             D           C         G
Yeah, to Georgia with me and to Georgia with you
[Outro]
