Johnny Cash – East Virginia Blues (Guitar)

      A               A
I was born in East Virginia

          D          A
North Carolina I did go

        D            A
There I met a pretty maiden

            E              A
Her age and name I did not know

                 A                   A
   Well, I don't want your greenback dollar

               D                   A
   And I don't want your watch and chain

         D                   A
   All I want is your heart, darling

             E             A
   Won't you take me back again

             A                A
Her hair was long and dark of color

        D                A
And her cheeks were rosy red

       D                     A
On her breast she wore white linnen

               E              A
That's where I long to lay my head

                  A                   A
   Honey, I don't want your greenback dollar

               D                   A
   And I don't want your watch and chain

         D                   A
   All I want is your heart, darling

             E             A     A
   Won't you take me back again

           A               A
Baby, last night I saw you walking

      D              A
With another by your side

      D                   A
And I thought I heard you tell him

         E                 A
That you soon would be his bride

               A               A
And I'd rather be in some dark hollow

          D              A
Where the sun don't ever shine

        D             A
Than to see you with another

       E                 A
And to know you won't be mine

               A                   A
   And I don't want your greenback dollar

                D                   A
   Hey, I don't want your watch and chain

         D                   A
   All I want is your heart, darling

             E             A
   Won't you take me back again

                  E             A
   Hey, won't you take me back again
