Virginia May - Gregory Alan Isakov

Intro: C F G

Verse:
C
slept high up in the Rockies
F G C F C
set my clock for californ-i-ey-aye
Em F

and i dreamed up somethin special to give that ocean
G C F C
man, she cuffs me anyway


so i�m banking on virginia
to keep me calm and clear and straight
just like clock work seems to tell us
with every passing storm there�s just a harder hail


Chorus:
Am C/B C Am C/B C
so light my way, Virginia May
C G
i can�t sit still, just pace across this hallway
Am C/B C
we spent all this time
Am C/B C
just trading crimes,
G
while the tune-smith packed a lunch,
F C F C
he�s headed down the coastline

C F G C F C


there�s a loneliness thats blowin
well i heard it from the radio man
he�s been locked up in the belfry
listening close, to a string upon a can

me, i�m sailin on to that savior,
she�s a pilgrim living on the modern time
and ever since i found her magic
now every car or cloud that passes is a sign

light my way, Virginia May
i can�t sit still just pace across this hallway
we spent all this time
just trading crimes

and i�m saving all my sleep for another life
i�m saving all my sleep for another life.
