VerseGC
Back before these calloused hands and all this work
GC
We used to sit up at the flats
GC
Acting like we'd live forever
GC
Gettin' high and skipping class
GC
Yeah I reckon we were heathens
GC
But in her eyes we were saints
GC
Now you're calling all the boys home
GC
Cause heaven's angels carried her away
--------------------------------
G
So I will follow you to Virgie
C
Although it hurts me so
G
To lay to rest this mountain beauty
C
That the Lord's called home
G
I can see her up in glory
CDD7
I can see her through the pines
InterludeGC x2
VerseGC
Back when all us boys were trying
GC
To make sense of all these strings
GC
I can see her in the corner
GC
Singing along to all our crazy dreams
--------------------------------
G
So I will follow you to Virgie
C
Although it hurts me so
G
To lay to rest this mountain beauty
C
That the Lord's called home
G
And I can see her up in glory
CDD7
I can see her through the pines
--------------------------------
(Single strum)
G
I will follow you to Virgie
C
'Cause that's what us boys are for
G
To help you out when you get weary
C
And you can't go no more
G
Can't you see her up there, Cody?
C
I can see her through the pines
DD7
Saying boys be good
