Why Georgia Tab

   
Song: Why Georgia
Tabbed by: Josiah Krol


Hey guys, this is my first tab, but I think most of it is right. I decided to write this
under the impression that you want to play the song with only one guitar instead of the
four that the others were suggesting you should play it with. I never had four people 
who played guitar and four guitars in the same place when I was learning to play so I
figured you wouldn't either. This is the "acoustic" version I suppose you could call it. 
Anyway, these are my tweaks.

*Note* If you are thinking of performing this I suggest putting a capo on the
       second fret because it is MUCH easier to sing.

           This is a watered down version of the song but I hope it helped
           anyway because it took FOREVER to type out. Enjoy!
