Virginia Calling Sons of Bill
Awesome song by an awesome band! It's best just to listen to get the strumming down.

VERSE (Same as INTRO)
Ain't it funny how you pray for rain,
And then you bitch about the rust,
You go reaching for the sands of time,
Wind up with a hand full of dust.
CHORUS
[Cadd9] And I can hear Virginia [D]calling,
[Cadd9] And I can hear Virginia [D]calling,
[Cadd9] And I can hear Virginia [D]calling out to [G]me,
To[Dadd4]night I'll [Em7]sleep, I'll [Dadd4]be all [Cadd9]right.
INTRO x2
VERSE (playing INTRO throughout)
And yeah I used to think I knew what love was,
And all I ever wanted was a song,
Until a girl's heart's too good for singing,
And you realize you were a damn fool all along.
PRECHORUS
[Em7] Cause you got a heart that wants [Cadd9]everything,
[G] Boy you got nothing at [Dadd4]all,
[Em7] And it's kinda like how you talk to[Cadd9] God,
[G] When you're all a[Dadd4]lone.
CHORUS
[Cadd9] And I can hear Virginia [D]calling,
[Cadd9] And I can hear Virginia [D]calling,
[Cadd9] And I can hear Virginia [D]calling out to [G]me,
To[Dadd4]night I'll [Em7]sleep, I'll [Dadd4]be all [Cadd9]right.
INTRO x4
VERSE (Same as INTRO again, strumming softly)
I guess sometimes it makes you wonder,
And all you lose and all you gain,
With your conscience cocked to hear the thunder,
Boy you're just standing in the rain.
PRECHORUS (building up)
[Em7] It makes its way down to the [Cadd9]rivers,
[G] And gets lost somewhere in the [Dadd4]sea,
[Em7] I thought I'd made a fool of [Cadd9]everyone,
[G] What if the joke's on [Dadd4]me?
CHORUS
[Cadd9] And I can hear Virginia [D]calling,
[Cadd9] And I can hear Virginia [D]calling,
[Cadd9] And I can hear Virginia [D]calling out to [G]me,
To[Dadd4]night I'll [Em7]sleep, I'll [Dadd4]be all [Cadd9]right.
INTRO x4
OUTRO - play INTRO one last time, end on G
Ain't it funny how you prayed for rain,
Still waiting on the rust.
