[Verse 1]
C
Once I lived in old Virginia
Bb C
North Carolina was my home
F C
There I courted a handsome lady
Bb F C
Oh, I called her my own
[Verse 2]
C
Her hair was yellow and her eyes were sparkling
Bb C
And on her cheeks was a rosy red
F C
And on her breast she wore white lilies
Bb F C
Oh, the tears I have shed
[Verse 3]
C
My father said that I must not marry
Bb C
My mother said, "That'll never do"
F C
But, oh, kind miss, if you are willing
Bb F C
Oh, I would run away with you
[Verse 4]
C
'Cause when I'm awake, I'm a-dreaming about you
Bb C
When I'm asleep I'll take no rest
F C
Cause every moment seems like hours
Bb F C
Oh, the pain lies in my breast
[Verse 5]
C
Oh, must I go to Old Virginia
Bb C
All for your sake must I die
F C
Must I go, sad, broken-hearted
Bb F C
Oh and darlin' say don't cry
[Verse 6]
C
When that golden sun is shining
Bb C
On the top of calvary
F C
It's sometimes lower that you are thinking
Bb F C
You must oft-times think of me
