[VERSE]
G Fmaj7 C
Well they chased her down the alley
Am D Am D
And over the hill to steal her will
G Fmaj7 C
She was hot as Georgia asphalt
Am D Am D
When the “A” crowd came to adore her brain
[CHORUS]
C G
So leave Virginia alone
C G
Leave Virginia alone
Em Am D
She’s not like you and me
Em D
She’s not like you and me
G Fmaj7 C
You should’ve seen her back in the city
Am D Am D
Poetry and jewels, broke all the rules
G Fmaj7 C
She was as high as a Georgia pine tree
Am D Am D
Makeup and pills, overdue bills
C G
So leave Virginia alone
C G
Leave Virginia alone
Em Am D
She’s not like you and me
Em A
She’s not like you and me
[BRIDGE]
C D G D Em
Some sunny day when the hands of time
D C
Have had their way
C D G D Em
You’ll understand why it was so hard
D C D
To run away
G Fmaj7 C
She’s a loser, she’s a forgiver
Am D Am D
And she still finds good where no one could
G Fmaj7 C
You ought to want her more than money
Am D Am D
Cadillacs and rust, diamonds and dust
C G
So leave Virginia alone
C G
Leave Virginia alone
Em Am D
She’s not like you and me
Em A
She’s not like you and me
C G
Yeah leave Virginia alone
C G
Leave Virginia alone
Em Am D
She’s not like you and me
Em A
She’s not like you and me
