[Verse 1]
G
I don't know what went wrong
I ain't known you that long to 
Cadd9
begin with
              G                  
Leave the rocks in the road, stay 
                         Cadd9
away from the river, Virginia
            G
There's not much you can do 'cept 
wait on a train
         Cadd9                
When the road gullies out in a 
 F#m
Biblical rain
    G                              
And that's how it's been ever since
           Cadd9  F#m
 I can remember

G  Cadd9  F#m

[Verse 2]
G
I'm not too keen of mind
I don't pick up on signs like I 
Cadd9
ought to
     G
So I won't sweat the cost
Of the coffee or the wine that I 
Cadd9
bought you
          G
With your emptied out nest, your 
chicks have all flew
        Cadd9               F#m
There's nobody left to take care of 
but you
        G
And you don't know how to just be
            Cadd9       F#m
No one ever taught you
            Em7
And I can't find much to say
       G                           
As you play with that loose strand 
   Cadd9
of hair
       Em7                    
If you had you a tail you'd be 
 G
twitching it
         Cadd9               F#m
And I'vе got to get over the scarе

[Chorus]
             G
And tell you no
             Cadd9 F#m
And tell you no
             G
And tell you no
         Cadd9 F#m
Tell you no

G  Cadd9  F#m

[Verse 3]
      G                          
Never saw such a cold day in June 
               Cadd9
did you ever, Virginia?
       G                        
In our young days the old people 
                       Cadd9
called it 'Blackberry Winter'
       G
As the mail plane goes out at a slow
 rate of climb
     Cadd9                         
This cold rain don't help with your
 F#m
 low state of mind
        G
Hanging down like the fog on the 
ridge
                      Cadd9  F#m
You can't tell what's in it
        Em7
And you stare me down hard
        G                 Cadd9
And you ask me why I even care
     Em7                  G
It's not that I'm any Sir Galahad
           Cadd9                
There just needs to be somebody 
F#m
there


[Chorus]
            G
To tell you no
            Cadd9 F#m
To tell you no
            G
To tell you no
            Cadd9 F#m
To tell you no


[Instrumental Break]


[Verse 4]
     G                             
Your bags are all packed, you're 
                         Cadd9
not coming back that's for certain
        G                      
And the landlady won't like the 
                            Cadd9
stains on the rugs and the curtains
             G
Well, that's just wear and tear such
 as happens in life
    Cadd9                     F#m
But folks around here live to gossip
 and gripe
     G
So I won't tell a soul
What they'll never know'll never 
Cadd9     F#m
hurt 'em
    Em7                    G      
And I found the letter you left at
                 Cadd9
 the foot of the stairs
    Em7                       
And I heard the horn blow, the 
 G
train's pulling out
  Cadd9                  F#m
I hope you find somebody there


[Chorus]
            G
To tell you no
            Cadd9 F#m
To tell you no
            G
To tell you no
            Cadd9 F#m
To tell you no

          G                      
Leave the rocks in the road, stay 
                         Cadd9  G
away from the river, Virginia
