[Verse 1]
[C]Well, ‘way down yonder on the Chattahoochee
it gets hotter than a [G]hoochie-cooc[C]hie.
[C]We laid rubber on the Georgia asphalt.
[C]We got a little crazy, but we[G] never got[C] caught.
[Chorus]
[F]Down by the river on a Friday night,
[C]pyramid of cans in the pale moonlight,
[F]talkin' 'bout cars and dreamin' 'bout women.
[D7]Never had a plan; just-a livin' for the [G]minute.
[Verse 2]
[C]Yeah, ‘way down yonder on the Chattahoochee;
never knew how much that muddy water [G]meant to me,
[C]but I learned how to swim and I learned who I was;
A lot about living and a [G]little 'bout love.
[Instrumental Break]
(like Intro, but without first two measures)
[Verse 3]
Well, we fogged up the windows in my old Chevy;
I was willin’ but she wasn't ready.
So I settled for a burger and a grape Snocone.
I dropped her off early but, I didn't go home.
[Chorus]
[F]Down by the river on a Friday night,
[C]pyramid of cans in the pale moonlight,
[F]talkin' 'bout cars and dreamin' 'bout women.
[D7]Never had a plan; just-a livin' for the [G]minute.
[Instrumental Break]
(Fiddle, chords like chorus)
[Verse 2]
[C]Yeah, ‘way down yonder on the Chattahoochee;
never knew how much that muddy water [G]meant to me,
