Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

 She moves trough the crowd like a swan

Laughing with one, kiss another, then she's gone

 But backstage at the ballet it's a bore

 I cannot give the ladies anymore

Chorus

 Oh Virginia, I miss the blue ridge mountains

 Oh Virginia, I miss the Shenandoah valley

 Oh Virginia, I miss your change of seasons

 And I miss some good ol' friends who are livin' back home

Sshe stand polite while I am gloriously rude

Just the other night I had my elbows in my food

She say that I must sparkle more

But backstage at the ballet it’s a bore

Chorus + solo

Her skin's so white and her forehead so high

I could not kiss my ballerina goodbye

I pinned a note upon her door

Said backstage at the ballet it's a bore

Chorus
