I met Virginia two summers ago 
G5                                D5 
Up in them mountains teaching school 
D5    D5     D5             G5 
All alone in a one room shack 
                                D5 
Teaching the children all she knew 
G5                          D5 
We spent a lot of hours together 
         C5                                  D5 
And one day she said she'd love me for all time 
C5                           D5 
And I'm in love with my Virginia 
       C5                         Fill Riff X 2 
And I hope she don't change her mind 
 D5        D5      D5 
We took a trip to Montana 
 G5                         D5 
Guess we were looking for gold 
 D5    D5   D5     
Never saw a trace of it 
G5                              D5 
But it was everywhere we were told 
 G5           D5         C5                   D5 
Worked in a mine for thirteen hours every day 
C5                         D5 
I took one look at my Virginia 
      C5                                 Fill Riff X 2 
And knew she wasn't meant to live that way 


D5 B5 F#5   G5             D5 B5 F#5 
          The going was rough 
 G5                     D5 B5 F#5 
But she treated me so kind 
G5                         D5 
I'm in love with Miss Virginia 
       C5                         Fill Riff X 2 
And I hope she don't change her mind 

Interlude on Intro Chords

Now we're back in Carolina 
G5                              D5 
Up in them Smokies where we belong 
 D5    D5        D5       G5 
Never knew why we went away 
                              D5 
Can't understand why we were gone 
G5                     D5 
Been with her twenty years 
    C5                                    D5 
And all those years she made me feel so fine 
C5                                D5 
And she still tells me that she loves me 
       C5                        Fill Riff X 2 
And I hope she don't change her mind 
       C5                        Fill Riff X 2 ( D5 ) 
And I hope she don't change her mind
