Old Crow Medicine Show – Levi (Guitar)

G              D                 C        Am 
Born up on the blue ridge at the Carolina line

G               D                C
Baptized on the banks of the new river

G             D             Am        C
Brought up on bluegrass and clear moonshine

G                   D             C     Am
Tough as iron but a heart soft as leather

G  C Am        D                    G C 
Levi Lord Lord Lord the shot him down

Am           D                         G C
Ten thousand miles from a southern town

Am  D  G   C Am D
Oh  oh Levi

G                  D                C             Am
Like a fire on the mountain running wild in those days

        G                        D                    C
Playing nights of the golden horseshoe and Indian raids

         G              D                Am            C
Now it's parachutes and combat boots and camouflage airplanes

      G               D                   C         Am
And a country boy who don't belong in the desert anyway

G  C Am        D                    G C 
Levi Lord Lord Lord the shot him down

Am           D                         G C
Ten thousand miles from a southern town

Am  D  G   C Am D
Oh  oh Levi

Bm                                             Em
Well the sand box sure gets lonesome and its a hundred and nine degrees

Bm                                         C               D                                          
Singing carry me back to Virginia Lord I'm down here on my knees

G                              D                  C                Am
In the market square while the bells were ringing loud to fill the air

G               D                    C   
Levi gazed his eyes out through the rocket glare

           G              D            Am                 C          
Beyond the desert and the ocean to the furthest fields of home

             G                   D            C      Am
And when the bullets pierced his body he was already gone

G  C Am        D                    G C 
Levi Lord Lord Lord the shot him down

Am           D                         G C
Ten thousand miles from a southern town

Am  D G  C Am        D                    G C    
Oh oh Levi Lord Lord Lord the shot him down 

Am  D  G   C 
Oh  oh Levi

Am  D  
Oh  oh Levi
