[Intro]
G   C   x2

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
   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

[Interlude]
G   C   x2

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
   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

[Chorus] (Single strum)
    G
And 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

(Normal strum)
G
Can't you see her up there, Cody?
C                            D
  I can see her through the pines
       D7
Saying boys be good

[Coda]
G   C   x2, G
