D 'neath Antebellum mansions A Bm G Where the ancient floorboards sag Bm A And Spanish moss sways gently as Bm A G... A tattered Rebel flag Strolling past wrought iron fences Tipped with rusty spikes I felt the softness of your hand You were beautiful that night [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/p/pierce-pettis/299203.html ] We walked in long shadows Long after it was dark Took our shoes off by the fountain Down at the city park Your flowered dress was clinging and Your hair was stringy wet We kissed beneath the white cascade I never will forget D Georgia moon G A Hanging down like a tear Bm from God's own eye G A Bm Laying low in the bottom of the sky G A Bm Sneaking up on me like a thief in the night A G Every time it makes me think of you G A D Long ago beneath the Georgia moon In the Confederate cemetery A sentry stood on high Expressionless despite A fuselage of fireflies On the graves of our grandfathers Where the grass is long and cool It was there we laid our blanket down Like a flag of truce On your mother's wide veranda We said our last goodbyes You were off to college by The red dawn's early light Now your memory still shines on me Part Heaven and part Hell Oh to reach for the roses, we Must feel the thorns as well  |
