G+G D MajorD
She never could give up the homestead on the farm
G+G
Where they handed off tobacco in the big tobacco barn,
And the long straight road that ran from the house down to the road
D MajorD G+G
That went to AP Carter's Store, down the logging truck she road.
C majorC G+G
Oh, she'd sit and she'd gaze at the foggy mountain top
D MajorD G+G
Where the swift hawk circled 'round the Clinch Mountain rocks.
C majorC G+G
At the school down in Hiltons, she'd read about the world
D MajorD G+G
Created to be conquered by this Poor Valley Girl.

G+G D MajorD
Her mother was an Addington, from over Copper Creek
G+G
Her father was of sturdy stock, she was royal but meek.
Her laughter was infectious, her music was pure joy.
D MajorD G+G
And she'd win the hearts of many men, as she had many a boy.
G+G D MajorD
Her mother became famous, Maybelle and her guitar
G+G
With sisters Helen and Anita, the family was four star.
She gave the world two daughters, and a son with auburn curls
D MajorD G+G
And I thank God that he gave me this sweet Poor Valley Girl.
C majorC G+G
Oh, she'd sit and she'd gaze at the foggy mountain top
D MajorD G+G
Where the swift hawk circled 'round the Clinch Mountain rocks.
C majorC G+G
At the school down in Hiltons, she'd read about the world
D MajorD G+G
Created to be conquered by this Poor Valley Girl.
