Verse 2:

	Georgia, your daddy was high the night he dreamed up you
	Georgia, the stars were flyin' the night that you came through

	If they ever let me out of here
	Am                 Am7/G
	They will say that it's not true
	D7/F#

	Georgia, won't you tell them for me dear

Verse 3 [partial]:

	Georgia, girl I never lived through a night like that
	Sure enough got your lovin' where I like it at
	Moonlight through the pines

	That wasn't moonlight, they were searchlights, oh no
