Intro:

A E D Bm C#m7 D

        A     E             D    Bm
Opening night,  nothing new Atlanta
         A                   E
Into the spotlight, one more time
                D    Bm
Just in time to play
   A              E
To one man at an empty table
       D        C#m7      Bm7
He was drinking down the pain
             Bm7     C#m7        D6
All he could say was his lady's name

A     E                D          Bm
Oh Camellia, won't you take me away

A     E                D          Bm
Oh Camellia, won't you take me away

          A     E                 D   Bm
After the show, when the room was empty
No, he wouldn't go
So I asked him why he called her name
It seems she was some magic one night
     D         C#m7    Bm7
With something for his pain
            Bm7          C#m7   D6
But all she left was her pretty name...

A     E                D
Oh Camellia, won't you take me away
   Bm                C#m7
To paradise tropical moon
           F#m                     Bm7     D
Don't you leave me sitting here in Atlanta

Repeat chorus until the end!
