We're thinking about putting together some chord charts for favorite tunes and standards. Would be great to know if you enjoy this one.  Georgia on My Mind is one of my personal favorites and I thought it would be fun to relax after a long day and play along with Ray.

Nice chart on this tune.( It can be interpreted many different ways). Do the B and final A.

It's a good tune to play the melody and then do a little improvisation off the melody...nothing fancy, just musical.

Great stuff - keep 'em coming. If you're looking for requests how about other beautiful tunes like 'Come Rain or Come Shine', 'Love Letters' or 'I'll Be Seeing You'? You guys have perfect taste so anything's good
