[intro]

G          D/F#                     Em   Em
  I know a girl'll mess with your mind (?)
G                 D/F#                   Em   Em
  She'll come to you in the summer some time
G                   D/F#                      Em
  She'll talk about things you don't understand
             D                     C
You better stick to the matters at hand
               D                 G    D/F#  Em  Em
  Before the whole damn thing unwinds

G              D/F#               Em   Em
  And she is beautiful, she is small
G            D/F#             Em   Em
  She don't wanna play basketball
G                 D/F#                   Em
  But there's no telling what she might do
           D                 C
Before her doin' days are through
              D                G   G
But right now she can't even crawl

         Em     D           C   C
Georgia Rae, okay, Georgia Rae
         Em                 D            C   D
Georgia Rae, baby what'd I say, Georgia Rae
                G  D/F#  Em  Em    G  D/F#  Em  Em
C'mon Georgia Rae

Your mother and I, we did this act
In some hotel 'bout nine months back
Now it is love that brings you here
A love that will not disappear
And Georgia honey, you can count on that

         Em     D           C   C
Georgia Rae, okay, Georgia Rae
         Em                 D            C   D
Georgia Rae, baby what'd I say, Georgia Rae

E         E     E               E
  We were tired, should've been sleepin'
E            E    E               E         E         E       E
  But like a fire, something went creepin', creepin', creeeeeepin'
D   D   D   D   D   D   D   D
[instrumental]


Now your brother and sister don't understand
How your tiny feet and your tiny hands
Could carry the weight of a thousand earths
Into our little universe
Georgia, we all think it's grand

         Em     D           C   C
Georgia Rae, okay, Georgia Rae
         Em                D             C   C
Georgia Rae, baby what'd I say, Georgia Rae
         Em     D           C   C
Georgia Rae, okay, Georgia Rae
         Em                D             C   D
Georgia Rae, baby what'd I say, Georgia Rae
                G  D/F#  Em  Em    G  D/F#  Em  Em
C'mon Georgia Rae
           G  D/F#  Em  Em    G  D/F#  Em  Em
Aiyee-ee-eee
            G        D/F#                 Em  Em        G  D/F#  Em  Em
Lucky for you, child, you look like your mama    Ohhh, hey...
G  D/F#  Em  Em
