Intro:

A5 E5 D5 B5 C#5 D5

        A5     E5             D5    B5
Opening night,  nothing new Atlanta
         A5                   E5
Into the spotlight, one more time
                D5    B5
Just in time to play
   A5              E5
To one man at an empty table
       D5        C#5      B5
He was drinking down the pain
             B5     C#5        D5
All he could say was his lady's name

A5     E5                D5          B5
Oh Camellia, won't you take me away

A5     E5                D5          B5
Oh Camellia, won't you take me away

          A5     E5                 D5   B5
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
     D5         C#5    B5
With something for his pain
            B5          C#5   D5
But all she left was her pretty name...

A5     E5                D5
Oh Camellia, won't you take me away
   B5                C#5
To paradise tropical moon
           F#5                     B5     D5
Don't you leave me sitting here in Atlanta

Repeat chorus until the end!
