(No Capo)
Intro.: |(Am)(G)|(F) | x 2
I re-(F)ceived my educa-(C)tion, ac-(Dm)cording to the plan (C)
in a (Am)valley full of echoes, (Dm) in the (F)footsteps (G)of the band (C)
A-(F)long a field of bat-(G)tle, I (Dm)came to understand (C)
Why so (Am)many fought and died (Dm)here, in the (F)heart of Dixie-(G)land (C)
And I bleed, (Am) I bleed, (G) I bleed (F)
But it’s (C)only Georgia (G)pouring out of me (C)
(F)I salute the col-(C/G)ors, loud-(Dm)ly I sing the hymn (C)
And (Am)solemnly I bow (Dm)my head, to (F)honor fallen (G)men (C/G)
And (F)when the crowd falls (C)silent, I can (Dm)hear it loud and clear (C)
Both (Am)tragedy and tri-(Dm)umph, at once (F)ringing in (G)my ears (C)
And I bleed, (Am) I bleed, (G) I bleed (F)
But it’s (C)only Georgia (G)pouring out of me (C)
(Em)Home is nothing we can (C)choose
It’s (Em)only something we can lose (G) (A) (G/B)
Now I (F)march across the moun-(C)tans, a (Dm)world away from home (C)
Though I'd (Am)rather be in Ath-(Dm)ens, all (F)roads lead (G)me to roam (C/G)
For the (F)holy war I’m (C)waging, while the (Dm)lights are going down (C)
I (Am)lift my voice to (Dm)heaven, so the (F)world will (G)know (C)the sound
And I bleed, (Am) I bleed, (G) I bleed (F)
I bleed, (Am) I bleed, (G) I bleed (F)
But it’s (C)only Georgia (G)pouring, my (Am)home in Georgia (F)pouring.
It’s (C)only Georgia (G)pouring --- out of me
