[Verse 1]
D# D#/D Cm A#
Hey, honey, won't you sit down
G#
And stop here for a spell
D# D#/D Cm A#
Singin' the sweet old lullabies
G# G#sus4 G#
To forget about your health
D# D#/D Cm
Don't think about tomorrow
A# G#
It's a whole night's sleep away
G#/D# Fm7 A# D#
Sure would be pleased to have you stay
[Chorus]
Fm A#
And it's reach out old Virginia
D# D#/D Cm A#
Won't you rock him close to you
Fm7 A#
The poor boy's had a hotel so long
A#7 D#
He don't know what to do
Fm7 A#
It's time to come on home
D# D#/D Cm A#
And put your feet up for a while
G# C#
So much travlin' 'round tends to take away your smile
[Verse 2]
D# D#/D Cm A# G#
'Pears to me it's all a body can do to stay in tune
D# D#/D Cm A#
And you've been strainin' at those strings
G#
From mornin' till noon
D# D#/D Cm A#
So come on down and hang around
G#
It'll put you right real soon
Fm7
'Cause nothing's changed
A#7 D#
It's all the same
[Chorus]

Reach out old Virginia
D# D#/D Cm A#
Won't you rock him close to you
Fm7 A#
The poor boy's had a hotel so long
A#7 D#
He don't know what to do
Fm7 A#
It's time to come on home
D# D#/D Cm A#
And put your feet up for a while

So much travlin' 'round can take away your smile
