C, G, Am, Em, F, G, C

C
No one knows where
  (E   F     G   F)           G                      (fill)
I buried my sweet Virginia Madison
       F
The winter chill falls over me
        Em            Dm         C      Am    F Em
And keeps me numb inside
      C                       (E     F   G  F)
Under the moon by the edge of town she’ll
G                               (fill)
Quietly wait for me
  F
I promised it wouldn't be too long
     G
Till I returned to sleep with her
C     Dm  Am                        C
She said she don't wanna live no more
        Em  F
Well I don't mind
      Em F             G
No I don't mind
C   Dm         Am                 F
So now I'm waitin' for the crack of dawn
     Dm
To head on back there
Em                             F                           G
To the place where me and her will always be
C                 (E    F     G     F)
Now I got my Sunday best
              G                                 (fill)
And I'm headed out that door
F                           Em       Dm     C     Am    F Em
Dig my fingers deep in soil just to get to her
     C                                    (E    F   G    F)
All dressed in black and she's so pale
          G                        (fill)
She's waiting there for me
   F
A blanket of soil covers us
     G
To fall asleep for eternity

Solo: C, G, F

        G                                C  G  F
And now I close my eyes

Solo:  C, G, Dm, F, C, Dm, F, G x2

          C                                         Dm
When I awake with a snap it was all a dream
F               G
I got an empty bottle of something under me
            C
I got a really bad headache
       Dm
My clothes are soaking wet
       F                     G
It’s times like this I wish I hadn't slept
C                   Dm
Star locked gaze, uneasy hands
  F
Then the dream fades away
        G
And leaves my head
 C
Another riddle ‘nother dream
 Dm
Another fucked up fantasy
           F                                    G
Gotta learn to stay away from all this TV

 C    Dm  Am                          C
She said she would always wait for me
         Em F
Well I don't mind
      Em F    G
No I don't mind
C    Dm        Am                F
So now I'm headin' to the place where I
F           G          Am   Dm  C
Buried my sweet Virginia Madison
