Follow you to Virgie

G                                 C
Back before these calloused hands and all this work
G                        C
We used to sit up at the flats
G                     C
Acting like we'd live forever
G                          C
Gettin' high and skipping class
G                     C
Yeah I reckon we were heathens
G                       C
But in her eyes we were saints
G                          C
Now you're calling all the boys home
G                     C
Cause heaven's angels carried her away

G
So I will follow you to Virgie
C
Although it hurts me so
G
To lay to rest this mountain beauty
C
That the Lord's called home
G
I can see her up in glory
C                         D        D7
I can see her through the pines

G                          C
Back when all us boys were trying
G                          C
To make sense of all these strings
G                    C
I can see her in the corner
G             C
Singing along to all our crazy dreams

G
So I will follow you to Virgie
C
Although it hurts me so
G
To lay to rest this mountain beauty
C
That the Lord's called home
G
And I can see her up in glory
C                         D        D7
I can see her through the pines

G
I will follow you to Virgie
C
'Cause that's what us boys are for
G
To help you out when you get weary
C
And you can't go no more
G
Can't you see her up there, Cody?
C
I can see her through the pines
   D           D7
Saying boys be good
