Intro: A D A A Iʼve been pickinʼ on the same backboard since D G I was just a boy with a dream A My daddy had a calf baby horse D By down in the field, running backer and things A G Preacher talk about heaven son, it sure sounds nice D At least I can tell them that I had me a slice A G Nobody singing songs about Virginia D A But sweet Virginiaʼs always a singing to me Chorus: D Down some old backer roads A Where the green grass grows G On down in the hills D A Where the folks on horseback rode D A Lordy Iʼll tell the youngins when I grow old G What they all told me D Lord, they donʼt never sing songs about Virginia A But sweet Virginiaʼs always a singing to me Instrumental: D A A Iʼve got a lightеr, Iʼve got a bowl D I know a spot where thе law donʼt go G Now we can smoke something D A My daddy never grow back in his day Chorus: D Down some old backer roads A Where the green grass grows G On down in the hills D A Where the folks on horseback rode D A Lordy Iʼll tell the youngins when I grow old G What they all told me D Son, they donʼt never sing songs about Virginia A But sweet Virginiaʼs sheʼs a always singing to me
