        G5            C5          G5 
        Buddy can we talk about Virginia 
        C5              G5                               D5 
        Talk about the Blue Rigde and the ol' lonesome pine 
                          C5          G5 
        Tell me 'bout the Shenandoah Valley 
            C5               G5             D5          G5 
        And don't forget my true love the one I left behind 
 

Verse:  E5        G5 
        I used to make a decent living 
        C5                  G5                              D5 
        Plowin' fields and raisin' cattle on that farm of mine 
        E5                 G5   
        Now I'm stuck here in this mighty city 
                                                     D5      G5 
        Sweepin' floors and cleanin' windows just to buy my wine

Verse:  I built a home and family in the coal fields 

        Diggin' black diamond from an island creek mine 

        But now I'm so alone here in this city 

        And I dream about my darlin' wife she always on my mind
