In a cornfield in Indiana sits a young girl all alone

With memories of Atlanta and a man who was all her own

Now he’s a good man with a purpose, but he lies and says he knows

C D G D
That the whiskey ain’t the reason that Georgia ain’t her home

Verse 2:
G D G
There’s another boy who’s lost his way up on highway 59

There’s a million different reasons why some stay and why some go


D C G
But the only thing that matters is if they love you in their soul

D C G
Now you can go to work and you can go to play, but the question still remains

Am C D
They will love you in good weather, but will they love you when it rains?

Now somewhere lost in the Georgia pines there sit two broken hearts

And they’ll have to spend the rest of their days knowing Georgia
