Skippin' town
C
Gone back to West Virginia
G D B7
With just a pencil to my name
Em
And I once had a lover
C Am
But I messed it up
G D G
And I'll write her letters of love every day
G
Cause I laughed at the Lord,
Em D/C
Danced with the woman in red
G Em
And the pillow's so cold
D/C
Where my love once laid her head
G Em D/C
And I need more than West Virginia could give
G Em D/C
I need salvation
Am D
I need salvation
G C G D B7 Em C Am G D G
G C
All the times I think I see your face
G D B7
In the West Virginia skies
Em C Am
But its never you,
G
And you don't need me girl,
D G
Cause I'm just a blight
G Em D/C
The perfume that you wear stains my heart
G Em D/C
And the tear stains on the letters from you
They rip me apart
G
And I need so much more
Em D/C
Than any lover could give
G Em D/C
I need salvation
G D B7
I need salvation
Em C
I need salvation
G Em C
And I need more than West Virginia could give
G C
I need salvation.
