Intro G

Verse
         G                D/F#  
He owns a big estate just south of Savannah
      Em                 C
And a high rise hotel in downtown Atlanta
    Em                D              C 
And half the state of Georgia to his name
        G                    D/F# 
She?d be set for life in his colonial manner
            Em                    C 
He laid the world at her feet on a silver platter
    Em    D      C     D           G
But all I had to offer her was the moon

Chorus
                 Am7       D
And she took the moon over Georgia
      G      D/F#   Em      D            Am7        D         G
She?d rather have a million stars in the sky than a gold mine
             Am7       D
She took the moon over Georgia
        C            [ch]Am7/B[/ch]        Am7
When it came down to his world or mine
    Em         Am7       D   G
She took the moon over Georgia

Verse
         G                D/F#
A little country house in need of expansion
       Em               C
It?s a far cry from his south Georgia mansion
    Em            D       C
But we?ve got our own paradise
       G                        D/F#
Shadow dancin? ?til dawn with a full moon shinin?
            Em                        C 
And those occasional clouds all have a silver linin?
      Em             D          C          D          G
There really must be something about, that old yellow light

Chorus
             Am7       D
She took the moon over Georgia
      G      D/F#   Em      D            Am7        D         G
She?d rather have a million stars in the sky than a gold mine
                  Am7       D
Yeah she took the moon over Georgia

        C            [ch]Am7/B[/ch]        Am7           
When it came down to his world or mine
    Em        Am7        D   Em7
She took the moon over Georgia
             Am7         D   G
She took the moon over Georgia
