Why I Left Atlanta Cifras

[Intro]
G (x4)
 
[Verse]
G
Headin' west on twenty, just past Birmingham
G                                D               G
Not sure where I'm going, I just can't turn back again
G                                    G
And I got headlights on the highway, I gotta heart that's away back home
      D                           C         D        G
And a picture of a life I lost to remind me why I'm gone
 
[Chorus]
G          C D        G
And that's why I left Atlanta
C                 D             G
I drove away in a early mornin' haze
G          C D        Em     C
Yes that's why I left Atlanta
G              D                G
Me and Georgia seen our better days
 
[Verse]
G
Settled outside the city, and bought a house and a little land
G                                D               G
Built our hopes on dreamin', til those dreams got out of hand
G                                    G
And I was after something, I could never be
      D                           C             D       G
I guess she finally grew too tired of waitin' 'round on me
 
[Chorus]
G          C D        G
And that's why I left Atlanta
C                 D             G
I drove away in a early mornin' haze
G          C D        Em     C
Yes that's why I left Atlanta
G              D                G
Me and Georgia seen our better days
 
[Bridge]
Em                                       D
I wish you could've held on a little longer
Em                                    D
I wish I could've been a little stronger
 
[Verse]
G
God knows things don't always, work out like you plan
G                                D               G
Well I could, tell you my story, I just don't know how it will end
G                                    G
So I'll keep right on drivin' till I, run out of gas
      D                           C             D       G
And start again where I end up ain't no use in lookin' back
 
[Outro] (x2)
G              D                 G
Me and Georgia seen our better days
