[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C]

[Verse 1]
Well they [G]chased
her [F]down the [C]alley
[Am]And over the hill [D]to s[Am]teal her will[D]
She [G]was hot as [F]Georgia [C]asphalt
[Am]When the "A" crowd came[D]
[Am]to adore her brain[D]

[Verse 2]
So [C]leave Virginia [G]alone
[C]Leave Virginia alone
[G]She's not[Em] like you[Am] and me
[D]She's not like you[Em] and me
[D]

[Verse 3]
You should've [G]seen her [F]back [C]in the city
[Am]Poetry and jewels,[D]
[Am]broke all the [D]rules
She was [G]high as [F]a Georgia
[C]pine [Am]tree
Makeup and [D]pills, [Am]overdue bills

[Verse 4]
[D]So lea[C]ve Virginia alo[G]ne
[C]Leave Virginia alone
[G]She's not[Em] like you[Am] and me[D]
She's not like [Em]you and me
[A]

[Verse 5]
[C]Some sun[D]ny day[G] when
the [D]hands of [Em]time
Have [D]had their [C]way
You'll [D]under[G]stand why it [D]was
so [Em]hard to [D]run away
[C][D]

[Verse 6]
She's a [G]loser, [F]she's a for[C]giver
[Am]And she still finds good[D],
[Am]where no one could[D]
You ought [G]to want her [F]more [C]than money
[Am]Cadillacs and rust[D], diam[Am]onds and dust[D]

[Verse 7]
So [C]leave Virginia [G]alone
[C]Leave Virginia alone
[G]She's not[Em] like you[Am] and me
[D]She's not like you[Em] and me[A]
Yeah, [C]leave Virginia [G]alone
[C]Leave Virginia alone
[G]She's not[Em] like you[Am] and me[D]
She's not like [Em]you and me
