Georgia On A Fast Train chords

Verse 1:
     A                                       D  
	On a rainy,windy morning that's the day that i was born on
                     A                              E
	In the old sharecroppers one room country shack
              A                    D   
	They say my mammy left me,same day that she had me
                  A                E                 A
	Said she hit the road and never once looked back


Verse 2:
     A                                      D             
	And i just thought i'd mention,my Grandma's old age pension
                A                              E 
	Is the reason why i'm standing here today
              A                        D 
	I got all my country learning,living and a churning
                 A             E                A
	Pickin' cotton,rasin' hell,and bailin' hay

Chorus:
     A                             D 
	I've been to Georgia on a fast train honey
        A                       E    
	I wudn't born no yesterday
                A                            D     
	Got a good Christian raisin' and an eighth grade education
                  A                E               A
	Ain't no need in y'all a treatin' me this way


Verse 3:
     A                                  D
	And now sweet Caroline,i don't guess i'll ever find
                 A                          E
	Another woman put together like you all
                   A                                D 
	With your wiggle and your walkin',and your big city talkin'
               A               E               A  
	Your brand new shiny Plymouth rag-top car


Verse 4:
     A                                       D
	Yeah it's hurry up and wait,in this world of give and take
                    A                           E  
	Seems like haste makes for waste every time
                A                       D  
	And i pray to my soul,when you hear those ages roll
             A                     E               A 
	You better know i'm gonna get my share of mine


Chorus.(x2)

                  A                E               A                  
	Ain't no need in y'all a treatin' me this way
