CHORUS
West Virg[D]inia, oh my [G]home
West Virg[D]inia, where I bel[A]ong
In the [D]dead of the night, in the still and the quiet
I [G]slip away like a bird in flight
Back [D]to those hills, the [A]place that I call [D]home
VERSE 1
It's been y[D]ears now since I left [G]there
And this [D]city life's about got the best of [A]me
I can't rem[D]ember why I left so free what I [G]wanted to do, what I wanted to see,
But I can [D]sure reme[A]mber where I come [D]from.
CHORUS
West Virg[D]inia, oh my [G]home
West Virg[D]inia, where I bel[A]ong
In the [D]dead of the night, in the still and the quiet
I [G]slip away like a bird in flight
Back [D]to those hills, the [A]place that I call [D]home
MANDOLIN SOLO
VERSE 2
Well I [D]paid the price for the l[G]eavin'
And this [D]life I have is not one I thought I'd f[A]ind
Just let me [D]live, love, let my cry, but [G]when I go just let me die
Am[D]ong the friends who'll re[A]member me when I'm [D]gone
CHORUS
West Virg[D]inia, oh my [G]home
West Virg[D]inia, where I bel[A]ong
In the [D]dead of the night, in the still and the quiet

[G]Home,[(] h[A]om[)]e, h[D]ome I can see it so clear in my [A]mind
[G]Home,[(] h[A]om[)]e, h[D]ome I can almost smell the honeysuckle v[A]ines
