(He couldn't make it) So he's leaving a life he's come to know
C Em7 F G
(He said he's going) Said he's going back to find (going back to find)

What's left of his world

Georgia (leaving on a midnight train), oh yeah

A simpler place and time

I'll be with him (I know you will) on that midnight train to Georgia
