Fast Train To Georgia

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

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

[Verse]
 A                                D
And now sweet Caroline, I don't guess I'll ever find
          A                          E
Another woman put together like you all
            A                                D
With your wiggle and your walkin', and your big city talkin'
       A                 E             A
Your brand new shiny Plymouth rag-top car
  A                                    D
Yeah it's hurry up and wait, in this world of give and take
             A                           E
Seems like haste makes for waste every time
        A                        D
And I pray to my soul, when you hear those ages roll
       A                   E                A
You better know I'm gonna get my 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                             D
Got a good Christian raisin' and an eighth grade education
           A                E              A
Ain't no need in y'all a treatin' me this way
