Bury me in Georgia
       C   Bb    Gm
Mm-hmm
       C   Bb
Mm-hmm
 
 
[Verse 1]
 Gm
Ten miles out of Chattanooga
                     C    Bb
South of that state line
           Gm
There's a no-name road off Highway 2
                       C    Bb
Just past the welcome sign
           Gm
It's where I was born, it's where I was raised
                           C    Bb
Ain't sayin' I'm ready yet
      Gm                        Bb/D
But that's the place I wanna be after my last breath
 
 
[Chorus]
            Gm
Bury me in Georgia
                      C
Let me rest in peace
      Bb        Gm
Underneath the pines, yeah, yeah, yeah
                    D7
Where my roots run deep (Where my roots run deep)
     Gm                  F
Whеn it's my day, put me in that clay
       C/E           Eb
And remembеr what I told you
        D7              Gm
When I die, bury me in Georgia
        C    Bb
Mm-hmm
 
 
[Verse 2]
      Gm
Yeah, I don't care what color my suit is
                     C         Bb
Or what shoes y'all put on my feet
Gm
I don't care how many show up, yeah
                C       Bb
Or who reads my eulogy
      Gm
Just take me out to that graveyard
               Gm
Sing a send me home song
 Gm
Put "Go Dawgs" on my headstone (Headstone)
     Bb/D
And pile that red dirt on
 
 
[Chorus]
            Gm
Bury me in Georgia (Woo)
                      C
Let me rest in peace
      Bb        Gm
Underneath the pines, yeah, yeah, yeah
                    D7
Where my roots run deep (Where my roots run deep)
     Gm                  F
Whеn it's my day, put me in that clay
       C/E           Eb
And remembеr what I told you
        D7              Gm
When I die, bury me in Georgia
         C
Georgia
Bb
 Hell, yeah

[Bridge]
C   Bb
      Check this out
     Gm           F
For my final will and testament
      C/E            Eb
Let this be my last request
 Gm               F
Leave it all to my family
    C/E                  Eb
You already know what's next
  D7
Yeah, bury me in Georgia

                    D7
Where my roots run deep (Where my roots run deep)
     Gm                  F
Whеn it's my day, put me in that clay
       C/E           Eb
And remembеr what I told you
        D7              Gm
When I die, bury me in Georgia
        C    Bb
Mm-hmm
