Come out Virginia, don't let me wait
You Catholic girls start much too late
But sooner or later it comes down to fate
I might as well be the one
Well, They showed you a statue, told you to pray
They built you a temple and locked you away
But they never told you the price that you pay
For things that you might have done
Only the good die young
Thats What I Said
only the good die young
only the good die young
You might have heard I run with a dangerous crowd
We ain't too pretty we ain't too proud
We might be laughing a bit too loud
But that never hurt no one
So come on Virginia show me a sign
Send up a signal I'll throw you the line
The stained-glass curtain you're hiding behind
Never lets in the sun
Darlin' only the good die young
whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
i tell ya only the good die young
only the good die young
You got a nice white dress and a party on your confirmation
You got a brand new soul, And a cross of gold
But Virginia they didn't give you quite enough information
You didn't count on me when you were counting on your rosary
oh woah woah
They say there's a heaven for those who will wait
Some say it's better but I say it ain't
I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints
the Sinners are much more fun
you know that only the good die young
oh woah baby
i tell ya only the good die young
only the good die young
Instrumental
You say your mother told you all that I could give you was a reputation
Aww She never cared for me
But did she ever say a prayer for me?
oh woah woah
Come out come out come out virgina dont let me wait,
You catholic girls start much too late
Sooner or later it comes down to fate
I might as well be the one,
You know that only the good die young
Coda
Once you figure out the strumming, it sounds spot on. I like to hit the chord then
mute, them upstrum it. i think that sounds the most like Billy.
