Chorus:
D G
I’m troubled, I’m troubled
G D
I’m troubled in mind
D
If trouble don’t kill me Lord
A D
I’ll live a long time
D
Courting is pleasure
G D
And parting is grief
D
But a false hearted lover
A D
Is worse than a thief
D
For a thief will just rob you
G D
And take what you’ve saved
D
But a false hearted lover
A D
Will lead you to your grave
Chorus
And the grave will decay you
And turn you to dust
Not one girl in a million
That a poor boy can trust
They’ll hug you and kiss you
And tell you more lies
Than cross ties on a railroad
Or stars in the sky
Chorus
I’m going to Georgia
I’m going to Rome
I’m going to Georgia
Gonna make it my home
I’m gonna build me a cabin
On the mountain so high
Where the wild birds and the turtledoves
Can hear my sad cry
Chorus 2x
