If I Ever Get Back To Georgia chords by Dean Martin

Capo 1st Fret

C   Bb   C
C   G    C


C
Well the wind blows cold in New York City
F                        G   C
along about the middle of now
C
And I'm telling you I'd be a happy man
D7                   G
if I could get away somehow
F
Cause I'm growing old before my time
C                  Am
finally I see the light
G

But if it costs a dime
C                  F
to get around the world
G7                      C     C7
I couldn't get out of sight

F
But if I ever get back to Georgia
C
there'll be no messing around
G
If I ever get back to Georgia
                               C
I gonna nail my feet to the ground
C   Bb   C

C            G     C
(In the cold cold ground)


C
Well the buildings here in New York City
F            G   C
grow so doggone tall
C
Sometimes you can walk for a couple of days
D7                   G
and never see the sun at all
F
So I left last night I was homeward bound
C                    Am
now I wanna sit and I cry
G
Cause I stuck out my thumb
C                 F
till my thumb got numb
G7                      C     C7
and the cars went right on by
F
But if I ever get back to Georgia
C
there'll be no messing around
G
If I ever get back to Georgia
                               C
I gonna nail my feet to the ground
C   Bb   C

C            G     C
(In the cold cold ground)

C#
Well I guess my time in New York City
F#            Ab   C#
hasn't been a total waste
C#
Cause I met a little girl from a social world
Eb7                   Ab
I really put her in her place
F#
When she sold me half of the Brooklyn Bridge
C#                    Bbm
I hung around just for spite
Ab
And I played this part
C#                F#
till I won her heart
Ab7                               C#     C#7
and I bought the other half last night
F#
But if I ever get back to Georgia
C#
there'll be no messing around
Ab
If I ever get back to Georgia
                               C#
I gonna nail my feet to the ground
C#   B   C#

C#            Ab     C#
[In the cold cold ground]
Repeat chorus one more time
