Draggin' shackles down in Georgia
     G7                             C
The mem'ry of her is burnin' up my brain
                            F
Draggin' shackles down in Georgia
       G7                              C
That woman's every link in these old chains

James' House of Jewelry had the ring she liked the most
G7                                  C
Just the thing I needed to win her hand
       E                            A
Now, James' House of Jewelry is a-missing one fine ring
F                                      G7
James says he isn't sure I bought the ring

G7                       C 
I get up ev'ry mornin' before the birds begin to sing
G7                                C
The only place I see you is in a dream
          E                                     A
And the cold chill of a captive heart makes me wish I were dead
F                                           G7 
Huntin' down the road with you in my arms, Lord I can't

                        C                F
Instead, I'm draggin' shackles down in Georgia
     G7                             C
The mem'ry of her is burnin' up my brain
