Verse: D7 G Way down in Virginia D7 A Amongst the tall grown sugar canes D7 G Lived a simple man and a domineering hen A D7 And a rose of a different name D7 G The first time i fell lightly D7 A I was standing in the drizzling rain D7 G With a trembling hand and a bottle of gin A D7 And a rose of a different name Chorus: D7 G The devil made me do it the first time D7 A The second time i done it on my own D7 G Lord put a handle on a simple handed man A D7 And help me leave that black rose alone Verse: D7 G When the devil made that woman D7 A Lord she threw the pattern away D7 G She was built for speed with the tools you need A D7 To make a new fool every day D7 G Way down deep and dirty D7 A On the darker side of shame D7 G I caught a cane cuttinʼ man with a bottle of gin A D7 With a rose of a different name Chorus. x2
