[Verse 1]
D D/C# Bm A
Hey, honey, won't you sit down
G
And stop here for a spell
D D/C# Bm A
Singin' the sweet old lullabies
G Gsus4 G
To forget about your health
D D/C# Bm
Don't think about tomorrow
A G
It's a whole night's sleep away
G/D Em7 A D
Sure would be pleased to have you stay
[Chorus]
Em A
And it's reach out old Virginia
D D/C# Bm A
Won't you rock him close to you
Em7 A
The poor boy's had a hotel so long
A7 D
He don't know what to do
Em7 A
It's time to come on home
D D/C# Bm 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/C# Bm A G
'Pears to me it's all a body can do to stay in tune
D D/C# Bm A
And you've been strainin' at those strings
G
From mornin' till noon
D D/C# Bm A
So come on down and hang around
G
It'll put you right real soon
Em7
'Cause nothing's changed
A7 D
It's all the same
[Chorus]
Em A
Reach out old Virginia
D D/C# Bm A
Won't you rock him close to you
Em7 A
The poor boy's had a hotel so long
A7 D
He don't know what to do
Em7 A
It's time to come on home
D D/C# Bm A
And put your feet up for a while
G C
So much travlin' 'round can take away your smile
