Boz Scaggs Rainy Night in Georgia Lyrics

Beautiful treatment of an all time classic.
From Boz' 2013 Memphis album.
Note the nice shifts from Dmaj7 to D on the turnaround in the verses.
Also... on the album the guitar is shifted down a semitone.
Chords
Hoverin' by my suitcase
Tryin' to find a warm place to spend the night
A heavy rain's a-fallin'
Seems I hear your voice callin' "It's all right"
A rainy night in Georgia
A rainy night in Georgia
Seems it's rainin' all over the world
Feels like it's rainin' all over the world
Neon lights a-flashin'
Taxi cabs and buses passin' through the night
The distant moanin' of a train
Seems to play a sad refrain to the night
On a rainy night in Georgia
Rainy night in Georgia
Feels like it's rainin' all over the world
Seems it's rainin' all over the world
How many times I wondered
But it still comes out the same
No matter how you think of it or look at it
It's life and you just got to play the ga -ame
Inst
Find my place in a box car
So I take my guitar to pass some time
Late at night when it's hard to rest
I hold your picture to my chest I feel fine
On this rainy night in Georgia
Rainy night in Georgia
Seems like it's rainin' all over the world
/aj7
Feels it's rainin' all over the world
On a rainy night in Georgi-a
Seems it's rainin' all over the world
All over my world

M-mmmmmmmmm
M-mmmmmmmmm
I hope I've done it justice!
