Georgia Can You Hear Me

when playing the D chord, bend the B string like in the intro INTRO (let open notes ring) |-0--------------------------0-------0-0---------0-0-| /6---5---5------------------3b-r3-| C C/B C F Felt so holy as the candle burned down to the bar. G G* And she filled me like her voice filled the room. C C/B C F Well my feet got sorta heavy, and my tongue turned to lead. G G* She was gone before I drank confident. Am D But Georgia, can you hear me? Am G G* I\'ve been crawling through the trees. Am F Through the pines, through the pines. G C Won\'t you whisper, that you remember me. C C/B C F Well I searched under rocks for the bird who flew away. G G* If I caught her, I don\'t know what I would say. C C/B C F Cause love don\'t haunt the tavern it\'s not drunk on the balcony. G G* It don\'t spill out at 2AM into the street. Am F But Georgia, can you hear me? Am G G* I\'ve been crawling through the trees. Am F Through the pines, through the pines. G C Won\'t you whisper, that you remember me. Am I was a leash with no dog like a track with no train G Well I hung by my hood let the wind have its way F Em I was lifeless, useless, as a corpse with no grave. Am An ascetic, with no pillar or pain G I was a, a shedded hair on a dead mare\'s mane F Em And from her fingers I dangled and danced along the stage. Am Well I caught her when I was taut in the yarn G And I yanked with all the strength in my arm F Em And she tumbled from the rafters and fell to me So hard, to my arms. Am F* But Georgia, can you hear me? C G G* I\'ve been calling across the sea. Am F* Through the waves to your breakwater. G C Won\'t you whisper that you remember me. C C/B C F When they seal you in oak throw dirt on your face G G* May a soft bark sapling sprout from thee. C C/B C F May your bones turn to wool. May your heart be a nest. G C And warm the world the way you warmed me.
