C We laid rubber on the Georgia asphalt. C G C We got a little crazy, but we never got 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 G Never had a plan; just-a livin' for the minute. [Verse 2] C Yeah, ‘way down yonder on the Chattahoochee; G never knew how much that muddy water meant to me, C but I learned how to swim and I learned who I was; G A lot about living and a 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 G Never had a plan; just-a livin' for the minute. [Instrumental Break] (Fiddle, chords like chorus) [Verse 2] C Yeah, ‘way down yonder on the Chattahoochee; G never knew how much that muddy water meant to me, C but I learned how to swim and I learned who I was; G A lot about living and a little 'bout love.
