Blue Ridge Mountain Girl

1 4 1

It sure is cold here in Chicago

5 1

The wind can cut you like a knife

4

Another day another dollar

2m 5

What a way to spend your life

1 4 1

She was young and I was restless

5 1

So I set out to see the world

4

Left my home in old Virginia

1 5 1

And my Blue Ridge Mountain Girl

4 1

I can see her standing by the window

4 1 5

There’s nothing sadder in the world

6m 4 1

Then to see those green eyes all red from cryin’

5 1

On my Blue Ridge Mountain Girl

In my hand I hold a letter

It said she made a pretty bride

As I lay here in the darkness

She lies by another’s side

I’ve got money in my pocket

Diamonds rings that I wear

But I’d trade it all this minute

For all the gold that’s in her hair
