Verse 1
C
Well, ?way down yonder on the Chattahoochee      
		      G		  C                  
it gets hotter than a hoochie-coochie.
C
We laid rubber on the Georgia asphalt.
C			     G	       C
We got a little crazy, but we never got caught.

Chorus
F
Down by the river on a Friday night,
C
pyramid of cans in the pale moonlight,
F
talkin' 'bout cars and dreamin' 'bout women.
D7					G
Never had a plan; just-a livin' for the minute.

Verse 2
C
Yeah, ?way down yonder on the Chattahoochee;
				     G
never knew how much that muddy water meant to me,
C
but I learned how to swim and I learned who I was;
			 G
A lot about living and a little 'bout love.

Instrumental Break (like Intro, but without first two measures)

Verse 3
Well, we fogged up the windows in my old Chevy;
I was willin? but she wasn't ready.
So I settled for a burger and a grape Snocone.
I dropped her off early but, I didn't go home.

Chorus
