Guitar chords with lyrics

- Difficulty: Beginner 👶
Key: Eb
Verse 1:
D A
I heard the sound of a redbird sing and the call of a whippoorwill
G D Em G A
As the sun pulled over the eastern ridges and warmed the morning hills
D A
I heard the sound of an old blue hound as it wakened to the day
G D Em G A
He shook off all of his hound-dog dreams and wandered on his way
Chorus:
A D Em A D
Thinkin' 'bout old Virginia and a Blue Ridge memory
G D Bm A D
That fills my mind with another time and brings her back to me
A D Em A D
Thinkin' 'bout old Virginia and a Blue Ridge memory
G D G A D
That fills my mind with another time and brings her back to me
Verse 2:
D A
She loved the sound of the banjo's ring and she loved the bluegrass tunes
G D Em G A
And as I recall, she knew them all beneath the mountain moon
D A
She loved the soft and the easy wind as it whispered in the hills
G D Em G A
And I'd like to think that if I were there she'd maybe love me still
Chorus:
A D Em A D
Thinkin' 'bout old Virginia and a Blue Ridge memory
G D Bm A D
That fills my mind with another time and brings her back to me
A D Em A D
Thinkin' 'bout old Virginia and a Blue Ridge memory
G D G A D
That fills my mind with another time and brings her back to me
Verse 3:
D A
The times they come and the times they go. Ya win, sometimes ya lose
G D Em G A
But I love this livin' with every breath and I love to sing the blues
D A
When i hear the redbird sing my heart jumps in a whirl.
G D Em G A
It reminds me of the time once spent with the Piney River Girl
Chorus:
A D Em A D
Thinkin' 'bout old Virginia and a Blue Ridge memory
G D Bm A D
That fills my mind with another time and brings her back to me
A D Em A D
Thinkin' 'bout old Virginia and a Blue Ridge memory
G D G A D
That fills my mind with another time and brings her back to me Published:
