Lyrics - Why Georgia by John Mayer

I am driving up 85 in the
Kind of morning that lasts all afternoon
I’m just stuck inside the gloom4 more exits to my apartment but
I am tempted to keep the car in drive
And leave it all behind
Cause
I wonder sometimes
About the outcome
Of a still verdictless life
Am
I living it right
Am
I living it right
Am
I living it right
Why, why georgia, why
I rent a room and
I fill the spaces with
Wood in places to make it feel like home
But all
I feel’s alone
It might be a quarter-life crisis
Or just the stirring in my soul
Either way
I wonder sometimes
About the outcome
Of a still verdictless life
Am
I living it right
Am
I living it right
Am
I living it right
Why, why georgia, why
So what so
I’ve got a smile on
It’s hiding the quiet superstitions in my head
Don’t believe me
Don’t believe me
When
I say
I’ve got it down
Everybody is just a stranger
But that’s the danger in going my own way
I guess it’s a price
I have to pay
Still everything happens for a reason
Is no reason not to ask myself
If
I’m living it right
Am
I living it right
Am
I living it right
Why, why georgia, why
