What About Georgia?

You draw it out like a highway
With every word that you say
Excuses for the answers that you lack
Your mama's still the steady ground you walk on every day
And your daddy's still the monkey on your back
Did you find all you thought you'd find out in the wild, wild west
You took a little piece of home and [Bm]you [A7threw away the ɾest

You say you're livin' on [C7]the edge and [Bm]I think you're hangin' from a ledge
Too scared to [C7]hold the hand [Bm]that wants to [C7]help you [A7up
Are you [A7the man you [A7thought you'd be [Am]by the time that you [A7turned thrity three
Are you [A7still a bullet in your daddy's gun
Don't forget boy you're your mama's only son
She's at home and [Bm]she's been praying for [Dm7]you
Hey what about Georgia

Saw your sister yesterday
Austin's five and [Bm]on [C7]his way
Looking for [Dm7]some shoes that he can fill
He said that he'd be [Am]just like [F]you, the coolest guy he ever knew
And he'd find you [A7when he lost his tɾaining wheels
I looked in his big blue eyes and [Bm]I saw you [A7again
He's hungry for [Dm7]a life that he ain't ɾeady to [C7]begin

You say you're livin' on [C7]the edge and [Bm]I think you're hangin' from a ledge
Too scared to [C7]hold the hand [Bm]that wants to [C7]help you [A7up
Are you [A7the man you [A7thought you'd be [Am]by the time that you [A7turned thrity three
Are you [A7still a bullet in your daddy's gun
Don't forget boy you're your mama's only son
She's at home and [Bm]she's been praying for [Dm7]you
So what about Georgia

Guess you [A7didn't ɾealize it'd take you [A7quite this long
To figure out that being free is ɾight where you [A7belong

You say you're livin' on [C7]the edge and [Bm]I think you're hangin' from a ledge
Too scared to [C7]hold the hand [Bm]that wants to [C7]help you [A7up
Hey! Are you [A7the man you [A7thought you'd be [Am]by the time that you [A7turned thirty three
Are you [A7still a bullet in your daddy's gun
Don't forget boy you're your mama's only son
She's at home and [Bm]she's been praying for [Dm7]you
