Capo 3

G (320003@1)     G (320003@1)     C (x32010@1)     G (320003@1)Verona left when she was only 16
Em (022000@1)    Em (022000@1)    D (xx0232@1)     DGave (xx0232@1)no reason but needing to fly
G (320003@1)     G (320003@1)     C (x32010@1)     GShe (320003@1)joined up with a traveling band, and lady luck she took her hand
D (xx0232@1)     D (xx0232@1)     G (320003@1)     GLeft (320003@1)all her demons behind

She wove her unbashed story all through the south
Verona she carried the truth of a child
She was a gypsy queen, her hair a raven sheen,
She made love so strong and wild.

Chorus
C (x32010@1)     C (x32010@1)     G (320003@1)     GNow (320003@1)they're bringing her home, sweet Verona
Em (022000@1)    Em (022000@1)    C(quick) (x32010@1)      G (320003@1)     GShe (320003@1)got her very own box in which to lay,
C (x32010@1)     C (x32010@1)     G (320003@1)     GNow (320003@1)they're bringing her home, from Louisiana,
Em (022000@1)    Em (022000@1)    D (xx0232@1)     GAnd (320003@1)halleluiah lord, she's home to stay

Kept all the postcards that she sent to me
Passed our way only once more,
When mama died she stood just outside of the church,
But she was gone when I ran out the door

Chorus
Now they're bringing her home, sweet Verona,
She got her very own box in which to lay,
Now they're bringing her home, from Louisiana,
And halleluiah lord, she's home to stay

Dawn as she died, said they found her that way,
Covered in the jewels that she bought at the pawn,
They say her fire burned so bright that it kept her alive,
And it burned til she was gone

Chorus
Now they're bringing her home, sweet Verona,
She got her very own box in which to lay,
Now they're bringing her home, from Louisiana,
And halleluiah lord, she's home to stay
And halleluiah lord, she's home to stay
