D5 One rainy night in Dalton they were talkin' in the bar D5 A5 About two bodies they'd been searching for D5 B5 Behind old Samson's sawmill, the blood hounds found their grave D5 A5 D5 They were layin' in that red Georgia clay D5 So I just sat and listened and drank my whiskey down D5 A5 I knew I'd never make it out of town D5 B5 When a big hand grabbed my shoulder, I started shakin' in my boots D5 A5 D5 And I knew the time had come to tell the truth D5 I said I followed them one evening when the sun was sinkin' low D5 A5 I knew that loggin' shack was where they'd go D5 B5 But when I watched 'em love together, it was more than I could take D5 A5 D5 So I left them layin' in that red Georgia clay D5 G5 D5 G5 D5 I may be hungry, cold and lonely in this ole prison cell A5 And when I die I guess I'll go to hell D5 B5 But at least I know she won't be runnin' 'round on me today D5 A5 D5 Cause they're layin' in the Red Georgia clay Arm and arm together, they both wanted it that way So I left them layin' in that Red Georgia clay
