I grew up in the kind of place you have to pass when travelin' somewhere else.
   D                   G                  Em                    A             D | G        Em   A
My mother laughed more than she cried, but when she cried, well it was something everyone felt.

Virginia I am baffled by the echoes, I've been defend by the sounds
  D                    G                  Em                  A                 D | G | Em | A
Of that place where they say we should dream of Heaven and keep our feet right on the ground

G           A               D           A        G
And I don't know if this is where we're meant to be

Hey, Virginia, won't you spend your days with me.

I dreamt of skies of quiet blue that laid to rest the pain of darker days
    D                   G                Em            A            D | G                 Em | A
And my dreams collide with subway cars, but in my heart I knew that I was frightened for a change
        D                  G            Em             A              D | G | Em | A
And the morning paints the bedroom in a faded gray, my hands remember yours.

I drank because I could not sleep, now I can't sleep 'cause I don't drink no more

G           A               D           A        G
And I don't know if this is where we're meant to be
        Em               A                     D | G | Em | A 
Hey, Virginia, won't you spend your days with me.

G        A                D        A        G 
New York ain't so pretty, New York ain't so strange
Em         A               D   A      G         Em   G             D | G | Em | A | D | G | Em | A
Soon we'll both forget our alibis and maybe we could find a way to change

G           A               D           A        G
And I don't know if this is where we're meant to be

And I don't know if this is where we're meant to be
