D        D7M      D9 
I met Virginia two summers ago 
G                                D 
Up in them mountains teaching school 
D    D7M     D9             G 
All alone in a one room shack 
                                D 
Teaching the children all she knew 
G                          D 
We spent a lot of hours together 
         C                                  D 
And one day she said she'd love me for all time 
C                           D 
And I'm in love with my Virginia 
       C                         Fill Riff X 2 
And I hope she don't change her mind 
 D        D7M      D9 
We took a trip to Montana 
 G                         D 
Guess we were looking for gold 
 D    D7M   D9     
Never saw a trace of it 
G                              D 
But it was everywhere we were told 
 G           D         C                   D 
Worked in a mine for thirteen hours every day 
C                         D 
I took one look at my Virginia 
      C                                 Fill Riff X 2 
And knew she wasn't meant to live that way 


D Bm F#m7   G             D Bm F#m7 
          The going was rough 
 G                     D Bm F#m7 
But she treated me so kind 
G                         D 
I'm in love with Miss Virginia 
       C                         Fill Riff X 2 
And I hope she don't change her mind 

Interlude on Intro Chords 
 D        D7M       D9 
Now we're back in Carolina 
G                              D 
Up in them Smokies where we belong 
 D    D7M        D9       G 
Never knew why we went away 
                              D 
Can't understand why we were gone 
G                     D 
Been with her twenty years 
    C                                    D 
And all those years she made me feel so fine 
C                                D 
And she still tells me that she loves me 
       C                        Fill Riff X 2 
And I hope she don't change her mind 
       C                        Fill Riff X 2 ( D ) 
And I hope she don't change her mind
