Fast Train To Georgia

A                                 
On a rainy, windy morning that's 
    D
the day that I was born on
        A                        
In the old sharecroppers one room 
           E
country shack
      A                      D
They say my mammy left me, same day 
that she had me
          A                 D     
Said she hit the road and never 
           A
once looked back
 A                                 
And I just thought I'd mention, my 
   D
Grandma's old age pension
          A                        
Is the reason why I'm standing here
    E
 today
       A                      
I got all my country learning, 
    D
living and a churning
          A             E      
Pickin' cotton, rasin' hell, and 
           A
bailin' hay

[Chorus]

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

[Verse]
 A                             
And now sweet Caroline, I don't 
   D
guess I'll ever find
          A                        
Another woman put together like you
  E
 all
            A                      
With your wiggle and your walkin', 
          D
and your big city talkin'
       A                 E  
Your brand new shiny Plymouth 
           A
rag-top car
  A                                
Yeah it's hurry up and wait, in 
    D
this world of give and take
             A                  
Seems like haste makes for waste 
         E
every time
        A                        D
And I pray to my soul, when you hear
 those ages roll
       A                   E   
You better know I'm gonna get my 
             A
share of mine

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