Em Am Em Am
[Verse 1]
E G#m
Where have you been Virginia
C#m B B7
There was a time when you stood by my side through dark and dire days
E G#m
But now you're cold and you're cursing the words
C#m
and now you're throwing our love to the birds
B E
Or is there somebody else you're dreaming of?
E G#m
I used to think we could make it all the way
C#m
I used to carry our love in a fire safe
B Gm
But now it's gone and I'm a ghost
[Chorus]
D
Baby look why ain't you calling me
A
I'll give it up and you can have all of me
Am C Bm B
I don't want to go home
[Interlude]
Em Am Em Am
[Verse 2]
E G#m C#m B B7
Walking around the same lines to get a taste of everlasting life like what we knew before
E G#m C#m
But now your momma don't want you with me and now the apple ain't far from the tree
B E
You're turning into the stone but I still love you
E G#m C#m
Somebody show me if there's another way, I never saved any love for a rainy day
B
The radio, another song
E G#m C#m
Why
B Gm
The radio, another song,
[Chorus]
D
Baby look why ain't you calling me
A
I'll give it up and you can have all of me
Am C Bm B
I don't want to go home
D
Climbing up into your fire escape
A
The lights are off, I'm nothing but I can wait
Am C Bm B
I don't want to go home
[Outro]
Em Am
Dear Virginia, please I'm on knees underwater
Em Am
Virginia, please I'm on knees underwater
Em Am
Virginia, please I'm on knees underwater
Em
Virginia please
