VERSE:
     G+G     Fmaj7Fmaj7  C majorC
Well they chased her down the alley
A minorAm      D MajorD  A minorAm      D MajorD
And over the hill to steal her will
G+G       Fmaj7Fmaj7  C majorC
She was hot as Georgia asphalt
A minorAm         D MajorD  A minorAm      D MajorD
When the “A” crowd came to adore her brain

CHORUS:
  C majorC       G+G
So leave Virginia alone
C majorC       G+G
Leave Virginia alone
   E minorEm    A minorAm   D MajorD
She’s not like you and me
        E minorEm   D MajorD
She’s not like you and me

       G+G    Fmaj7Fmaj7    C majorC
You should’ve seen her back in the city
A minorAm     D MajorD    A minorAm      D MajorD
Poetry and jewels, broke all the rules
      G+G     Fmaj7Fmaj7  C majorC
She was as high as a Georgia pine tree
A minorAm     D MajorD   A minorAm   D MajorD
Makeup and pills, overdue bills

  C majorC       G+G
So leave Virginia alone
C majorC       G+G
Leave Virginia alone
   E minorEm    A minorAm   D MajorD
She’s not like you and me
        E minorEm   A augmentedA
She’s not like you and me

BRIDGE:
C majorC  D MajorD   G+G      D MajorD    E minorEm
Some sunny day when the hands of time
D MajorD       C majorC
Have had their way
C majorC   D MajorD  G+G      D MajorD   E minorEm
You’ll understand why it was so hard
D MajorD   C majorC    D MajorD
To run away

    G+G   Fmaj7Fmaj7  C majorC
She’s a loser, she’s a forgiver
A minorAm         D MajorD  A minorAm      D MajorD
And she still finds good where no one could
G+G           Fmaj7Fmaj7   C majorC
You ought to want her more than money
A minorAm      D MajorD   A minorAm      D MajorD
Cadillacs and rust, diamonds and dust

  C majorC       G+G
So leave Virginia alone
C majorC       G+G
Leave Virginia alone
   E minorEm    A minorAm   D MajorD
She’s not like you and me
        E minorEm   A augmentedA
She’s not like you and me

   C majorC       G+G
Yeah leave Virginia alone
C majorC       G+G
Leave Virginia alone
   E minorEm    A minorAm   D MajorD
She’s not like you and me
        E minorEm   A augmentedA
She’s not like you and me
