Am  Dm  Am  Dm

[Verse 1]
A                           C#m
Where have you been Virginia
                                F#m                         E          E7
There was a time when you stood by my side through dark and dire days
A                                          C#m
But now you're cold and you're cursing the words
                                    F#m
and now you're throwing our love to the birds
                                 E        A
Or is there somebody else you're dreaming of?
A                                        C#m
I used to think we could make it all the way
                            F#m
I used to carry our love in a fire safe
                      E        Cm
But now it's gone and I'm a ghost

[Chorus]
G
Baby look why ain't you calling me
D
I'll give it up and you can have all of me
Dm  F                  Em    E
    I don't want to go home

[Interlude]
Am  Dm  Am  Dm

[Verse 2]
A                            C#m                    F#m                       E          E7
Walking around the same lines to get a taste of everlasting life like what we knew before
A                                        C#m                                        F#m
But now your momma don't want you with me and now the apple ain't far from the tree
                                  E             A
You're turning into the stone but I still love you
A                                   C#m                               F#m
Somebody show me if there's another way, I never saved any love for a rainy day
                   E
The radio, another song
A   C#m  F#m
Why
                   E  Cm
The radio, another song, 

[Chorus]
G
Baby look why ain't you calling me
D
I'll give it up and you can have all of me
Dm  F                  Em    E
    I don't want to go home
G
Climbing up into your fire escape
D
The lights are off, I'm nothing but I can wait
Dm  F                  Em   E
    I don't want to go home

[Outro]
Am                           Dm
Dear Virginia, please I'm on knees underwater
Am                      Dm
Virginia, please I'm on knees underwater
Am                      Dm
Virginia, please I'm on knees underwater
Am
Virginia please
