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