[Verse]
G
I've been pickin'
on the same backboard since
G
I was just a boy with a dream
G
My daddy had a calf baby horse
C
By down in the field,
running backer and things
G
Preacher talk about heaven son,
C D
it sure sounds nice
C
At least I can tell them
G
that I had me a slice
G C
Nobody singing songs about Virginia
C G
But sweet Virginia's always a singing to me
[Chorus]
G C
Down some old backer roads
G
Where the green grass grows
C D
On down in the hills
C G
Where the folks on horseback rode
C
Lordy I'll tell the youngins
G
when I grow old
F
What they all told me
C
Lord, they don't never sing songs
about Virginia
G
But sweet Virginia's always a singing to me

I've got a lightеr, I've got a bowl
C
I know a spot where thе law don't go
C D C
Now we can smoke something
D C C/Bb G
My daddy never grow back in his day
[Chorus]
G C
Down some old backer roads
G
Where the green grass grows
C D
On down in the hills
C G
Where the folks on horseback rode
C
Lordy I'll tell the youngins
G
when I grow old

What they all told me

about Virginia
But sweet Virginia's
C G
she's a always singing to me
