[Strum the chords then go into finger picking.. Like strum Am then pick. Strum C then 
pick so on so forth. I find this to be the right rythem guitar for this song]
Am                C
The bus is on the road
      G             D
Sweet Georgia fades away
Am                    C
We'll be burnin' down Louisiana
       G         D
By the very next day
Am                   C
No, sleep will never take me
   G                D
My mind is stuck on you
Am                 C
Oh you'd better be laying awake
G              D
Thinking of me too

[Strum..1,2,3,and 4,5,and,6,and 7]
Am           C
I'll ask one thing( I'll ask one thing)
Am                C
Not that you'd be true( Not that you'd be true)
Am                   C
The thing I'm asking of you

[Strum..1,2, and 3 1,2, and]
G            D
Save me some sugar
[Strum..1,2, and 3 but give the D a 2 count]
C               D
This won't take long
G                  D
I won't promise to stay the night
C                   D
I won't sing you no song
G            D
Save me some sugar
       C               D
That's all I'll ask of you
G             C
You're my old lady

Aw yeah
Alright

Am                 C
Thank you for your sugar
          G                D
Sugar you brought down the night
Am                        C
I was seein' stars on the bedroom walls
G                 D
Full moon in your eyes
Am              C
This don't mean nothin'
G                     D
Well I'm just passing time
Am                 C
A part of you I'll take with me
    G               D
But most I'll leave behind

Am              C
One day I'll be back( Yeah, I'll be back)
   Am               C
It might not be too soon( Might not be too soon)
Am                               C
I pray there's something left of you

G            D
Save me some sugar
     C          D
This won't take long
G                D
Don't give me too much
        C                 D
I won't be there when you fall
G            D
Save me some sugar
       C             D
That's all you gotta do
G             D
Anything left over
C              D
I'll take that too

Am           C
I'll ask one thing
