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 


 
    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.
