[Verse 1]
C
Well, ‘way down yonder on the Chattahoochee
GC
it gets hotter than a hoochie-coochie.
C
We laid rubber on the Georgia asphalt.
CGC
We got a little crazy, but we never got caught.
[Chorus]
F
Down by the river on a Friday night,
C
pyramid of cans in the pale moonlight,
F
talkin' 'bout cars and dreamin' 'bout women.
D7G
Never had a plan; just-a livin' for the minute.
[Verse 2]
C
Yeah, ‘way down yonder on the Chattahoochee;
G
never knew how much that muddy water meant to me,
C
but I learned how to swim and I learned who I was;
G
A lot about living and a little 'bout love.
[Instrumental Break]
(like Intro, but without first two measures)
[Verse 3]
Well, we fogged up the windows in my old Chevy;
I was willin’ but she wasn't ready.
So I settled for a burger and a grape Snocone.
I dropped her off early but, I didn't go home.
[Chorus]
F
Down by the river on a Friday night,
C

D7G
