Intro F,C,Am,G x2


Verse 1:
F       C              Am       G
 Everybody's got that girl, you know the one that got away
F     C            Am          G
 I really don't know why but I was thinking 'bout her today
F             C
 I loved the way she'd say Georgia
     Am            G
With that sweet little southern drawl
F            C
 And how she whispered "baby"
    Am            G
As the mossy oak shadows would fall
Dm                   G
 If whiskey was a time machine, I would try to drink her back to me

Chorus:
     F      C
There are highways and byways
      Am         G
Running east, west, north, and south
      F       C        Am        G
And you can sail into the harbor, see the planes touching down
   F        C
But I burned up every bridge
           Am        G
Just like Sherman did coming down from Atlanta
   Dm      G         F      C  Am    G
And I know there ain't no way back to Savannah, no, no, oh, woah



Verse 2:
F         C        Am        G
 Yeah, I had some big city dreams, headed out on my own
    F         C       Am         G
To the bright lights and the neon sky, left her there all alone
F            C       Am     G
 This photograph is the only map as a memory disappears
    Dm                G  C
And the truth is you can't get there from here


Chorus:
     F      C
There are highways and byways
      Am         G
Running east, west, north, and south
      F       C        Am        G
And you can sail into the harbor, see the planes touching down
   F        C
But I burned up every bridge
           Am        G
Just like Sherman did coming down from Atlanta
   Dm      G         F      C  Am    G
And I know there ain't no way back to Savannah, no, no, oh, woah

F,C,G


Break:

Yeah
Dm                   G
 If whiskey was a time machine I would try to drink her back to me


Chorus:
     F      C
There are highways and byways
      Am         G
Running east, west, north, and south
      F       C        Am        G
And you can sail into the harbor, see the planes touching down
   F        C
But I burned up every bridge
           Am        G
Just like Sherman did coming down from Atlanta
   Dm             G  F      C  Am    G
And I know there ain't no way back to Savannah, no, no, oh, woah
  F  C      G
 No, no, no, oh, woah



Outro:
F       C            Am        G
 Everybody's got that girl, I've got mine in black and white
F     C           Am       G   F C
 I really don't know why but I'm calling her tonight
