INTRO: G
You said you'd [G]go just for a year and I watched the taillights disappear
Your [Am]words like old footprints upon my [G]mind
Yeah your [G]family all was gone, but you couldn't imagine leavin' long
I said [Am]you only get your life for this one [G]time
But [F]what do I [C]recall when the [F]world is all but [C]changin'
In the [F]mirror while I'm [C]standin' like an [D]old stop sign
Have [G]courage, said the man, when you see your whole life turnin' out
[Am]Nothin' like you'd ever seen or [G]planned
He said there's [G]always another day, and anyhow that's the only way
It's [Am]better just to learn that while you [G]can
Well would she [F]stay or would she [C]go, with a [F]girl like that you [C]never know
What's [F]goin' on in her [C]heart is [D]hard to define
CHORUS:
But [F]I'm inc[C]lined to say
[G]Virginia guess you [D]made up [G]your mind
INTRO
Well you [G]taught me how to dance and what it is to take a chance
There's [Am]learnin' and there's doin', it's not the [G]same
Yeah I [G]held you when you cried on the mornin' that your daddy died
If you're [Am]livin', you hurt, there's no one [G]to blame
Yeah and [F]hell I do al[C]right, but there's [F]times that I can't [C]sleep at night
And I [F]think about things I [C]didn't know would stay [D]with me all this time
CHORUS
SOLO: G Am G Am G
Yeah [F]years go [C]by and you don't [F]come [C]home at all
Or [F]write or call or [C]tell me what you [D]did or didn't find
Yeah the [G]young girl that I married and the babies that she carred
Are the [Am]stars that my whole world turns [G]around
And I [G]guess she's just like me, and she didn't care too much to see
What [Am]life was like outside our little [G]town
Yeah [F]mornin's, there are [C]some, where I [F]wonder if I've [C]chosen
Any[F]thing that I've ever [C]done before in [G]my whole life
CHORUS:
But that's [F]all beh[C]ind me now
[G]Virginia guess you [D]made up
[F]I'm in[C]clined to say
[G]Virginia guess you [D]made up
[F]I don't [C]mind to see
[G]Virginia guess you [D]made up [G]your mind
INTRO out
