Verse:
G+G    C/GC/G G+G  C/GC/G   G+G   C/GC/G        G+G
Woke up this morning, the breeze blowin' 'cross my face,
G+G     C/GC/G     G+G  C/GC/G   G+G   C/GC/G     G+G
And I just had to look up above and thank somebody for this place,
      Am7Am7            D7D7
Because He must've been thinkin' 'bout me
    Am7Am7           D7D7
When He planted that very first dogwood tree,
Am7Am7         D7D7
It's where I want to be,
       G+G   C/GC/G   G+G
Livin' in the Sweet Virginia Breeze.

Verse:
G+G    C/GC/G    G+G  C/GC/G   G+G      C/GC/G   G+G
Take me out to the country, it feels mighty good out there,
G+G     C/GC/G     G+G      C/GC/G
When I get back to the city of the monuments,
G+G     C/GC/G  G+G
It doesn't matter where
  Am7Am7           D7D7
I hang my hat, it's home to me,
 Am7Am7                  D7D7
The Blue Ridge Mountains tend to set me free,
Am7Am7         D7D7
It's where I want to be,
       G+G   C/GC/G   G+G    G+G   C majorC D MajorD C majorC G+G
Livin' in the Sweet Virginia Breeze. Sweet Virginia Breeze.

Bridge:
E minorEm         Am7Am7
Wakes me up in the mornin',
E7sus4E7sus4   B7B7    E minorEm
Rocks me to sleep at night,
E minorEm                Am7Am7
I've got a red bird singin' on my window sill,
 A7A7           D7D7
I know everything will be all right,
       G+G   C/GC/G   G+G    G+G   C majorC D MajorD C majorC G+G
Livin' in the Sweet Virginia Breeze. Sweet Virginia Breeze.

Verse:
G+G      C/GC/G  G+G
Just sittin' on my back porch,
C/GC/G   G+G      C/GC/G   G+G
I'm just watchin' the sun come up,
G+G   C/GC/G   G+G      C/GC/G   G+G         C/GC/G  G+G
Sweet sweet Virginia Breeze blowin' ripples 'cross my coffee cup,
      Am7Am7            D7D7
Because He must've been thinkin' 'bout me
    Am7Am7           D7D7
When He planted that very first dogwood tree,
    E minorEm           Am7Am7
'Cause when that breeze comes blowin' through the trees,
  A7A7            D7D7
You know everything will be all right,
       G+G   C/GC/G   G+G    G+G   C majorC D MajorD C majorC G+G
Livin' in the Sweet Virginia Breeze. Sweet Virginia Breeze.
       G+G   C/GC/G   G+G    G+G   C majorC D MajorD C majorC G+G
Livin' in the Sweet Virginia Breeze. Sweet Virginia Breeze.
