East Virginia Blues

(início)

           D                                   G         D
    I was born in East Virginia, to North Carolina I did go,
              G                D              A   A7              D
    there I spied a fair young lady, and her age       I did not know.
     D                            G              D
Her hair was dark in color, her cheeks were rosy red,
           G                    D               A      A7            D
upon her breast she wore white lilies, where I longed     to lay my head.
               D                               G                 D
    Oh, at my heart you are my darlin', at my door you're welcome in,
           G                D                        A     A7             D
    at my gate I'll always meet you, for you're the girl       I tried to win.
               D                                  G             D
    I'd rather be in some dark holler, where the sun refuse to shine,
              G                       D
    than for you to be another man's darlin',
             A    A7                   D
    and to know       you'll never be mine.
