Capo II
Intro
Verse
He owns a big estate just south of Savannah
And a high rise hotel in downtown Atlanta
And half the state of Georgia to his name
Sheâd be set for life in his colonial manner
He laid the world at her feet on a silver platter
But all I had to offer her was the moon
Chorus
And she took the moon over Georgia
Sheâd rather have a million stars in the sky than a gold mine
She took the moon over Georgia
When it came down to his world or mine
She took the moon over Georgia
Verse
A little country house in need of expansion
Itâs a far cry from his south Georgia mansion
But weâve got our own paradise
Shadow dancinâ âtil dawn with a full moon shininâ
And those occasional clouds all have a silver lininâ
There really must be something about, that old yellow light
Chorus
She took the moon over Georgia
Sheâd rather have a million stars in the sky than a gold mine
Yeah she took the moon over Georgia
When it came down to his world or mine
She took the moon over Georgia
She took the moon over Georgia
