East Virginia Chords & Lyrics - Johnny Cash

[VERSE]
[E]I was born in East Virginia
To North Car[A]olina I did g[E]o
There I m[A]et a pretty ma[E]iden
Her age and n[B7]ame I did not kn[E]ow

[CHORUS]
Well I don't w[E]ant your green back dollar
And I don't w[A]ant your watch and ch[E]ain
All I w[A]ant is your heart dar[E]ling
Won't you t[B7]ake me back ag[E]ain

[VERSE]
H[E]er hair was long and dark of color
And her ch[A]eeks were rosy r[E]ed
On her br[A]east she wore white li[E]nen
That's were I lo[B7]nged to lay my he[E]ad

[CHORUS]
Well I don't w[E]ant your green back dollar
And I don't w[A]ant your watch and ch[E]ain
All I w[A]ant is your heart dar[E]ling
Won't you t[B7]ake me back ag[E]ain

[VERSE]
[E]Baby last night I saw you walkin'
With ano[A]ther by your si[E]de
And I th[A]ought I heard you t[E]ell him
That you so[B7]on would be his br[E]ide
[E]I'd rather be in some dark holler
Where the s[A]un don't ever sh[E]ine
Than to s[A]ee you with ano[E]ther
And to k[B7]now you won't be m[E]ine

[CHORUS]
Well I don't w[E]ant your green back dollar
And I don't w[A]ant your watch and ch[E]ain
All I w[A]ant is your heart dar[E]ling
Won't you t[B7]ake me back ag[E]ain. Babe won't you ta[B7]ke me back ag[E]ain
