They got a [F]place down Kentucky
[C]Right down near Ohio
Where [G]you can watch the planes at night
[Am]People [Bb]line [C]up to watch each flight
I said [Am]watchin' [Bb]them [C]planes
I [Am]wish I [Bb]was [C]on one
I'm [Am]sittin' here thinkin' 'bout my [E7]red head dream
If I could [F7]on - [Bb]ly [Eb]see her [E]to - [F]night
[F]Oh Atlanta, [C]Oh Atl[F]anta!
I said [F]yeah! yeah! yeah! Atlanta, [C]got to get back to [F]you
|F |F |C |F |
|F |F |C |F |F |
Well you can [F]drop me off on Peachtree
I got to [C]feel that Georgia sun
And the [G]women there in Atlanta
They make you [Am]aw - [Bb]fully [C]glad you come
I said [Am]watchin' [Bb]them [C]planes
I [Am]wish I [Bb]was [C]on one
I'm [Am]sittin' here thinking 'bout my [E7]crazy dream
If I could [F7]on - [Bb]ly be [Eb]there [E]to - [F]night
[F]Oh Atlanta, [C]Oh Atl[F]anta!
I said [F]yeah! yeah! yeah! Atlanta, [C]got to get back to [F]you
We make a [Eb]day [Bb/D]and [C]how [F]just [C]you [Bb/D]and [F]me
[F/A]But the [Bb]music plays all night
They got the [C]boogie band blowin' that's bound for hell
And when they get to movin' they never stop
You just [F]keep on playin' that down home beat
You just keep on layin' it down hot
Solo:
|F | repeat ad lib;
on cue to:
|C |
[C]I wish I was on one
I'm [Am]sittin' here thinkin' bout my [E7]red haired dream
If I could [F7]on - [Bb]ly [Eb]see her [E]to - [F]night
[F]Oh Atlanta, [C]Oh Atl[F]anta!
