The way you kiss me will work each time
Em                 D
Calling me to come back to bed

Singing Georgia on my mind

Lips generous and warm

You build me up like steps
Em   Bm    C       D
Eyes innocent and wild
  Bm       C         Em            Bm  C      D        Bm  C
Remind me what it's like

C    D

    Em              D
And I could easily lose my mind
    G                     C
The way you kiss me will work each time
Em                D
Pulling me back into the flames 
        G                     C
And I'm burning up again, I'm burning up 

    Em    D
And I, I never understood what was 
G            C
At stake, I never thought your love was worth
Em                D
It's wait, well now you've come and gone
          G                C
I finally worked it out, I worked it out

I never should have let you see inside

Don't want a trouble in your mind 
G
Won't you let it be

And I'm burning up again, I'm burning up

At stake, I never thought your love was worth

Sing along

She is something to behold
Elegant and bold
She is electricity
Running to my soul

And I could easily lose my mind
the way you kiss me
will work each time
Calling me to come back to bed
Singing Georgia on my mind

Lips generous and warm
You build me up like steps
Eyes innocent and wild
Remind me what it's like

And I could easily lose my mind
The way you kiss me will work each time
Pulling me back into the flames
And I'm burning up again
I'm burning up

And I, I never understood what was at stake
I never thought your love was worth it's wait
Well now you've come and gone
I finally worked it out
I worked it out

I never should have told you
I never should have let you see inside
Don't want it troubling in your mind
Won't you let it be
[x2]

And I could easily lose my mind
the way you kiss me will work each time
Pulling me back into the flames
And I'm burning up again, I'm burning up

And I, I never understood what was at stake
I never thought your love was worth its wait
Well now you've come and gone
I finally worked it out
I worked it out
