[Verse 1]
G G/F# Em D
Hey, honey, won't you sit down
C
And stop here for a spell
G G/F# Em D
Singin' the sweet old lullabies
C Csus4 C
To forget about your health
G G/F# Em
Don't think about tomorrow
D C
It's a whole night's sleep away
C/G Am7 D G
Sure would be pleased to have you stay
[Chorus]
Am D
And it's reach out old Virginia
G G/F# Em D
Won't you rock him close to you
Am7 D
The poor boy's had a hotel so long
D7 G
He don't know what to do
Am7 D
It's time to come on home
G G/F# Em D
And put your feet up for a while
C F
So much travlin' 'round tends to take away your smile
[Verse 2]
G G/F# Em D C
'Pears to me it's all a body can do to stay in tune
G G/F# Em D
And you've been strainin' at those strings
C
From mornin' till noon
G G/F# Em D
So come on down and hang around
C
It'll put you right real soon
Am7
'Cause nothing's changed
D7 G
It's all the same
[Chorus]
Am D
Reach out old Virginia
G G/F# Em D
Won't you rock him close to you
Am7 D
The poor boy's had a hotel so long
D7 G
He don't know what to do
Am7 D
It's time to come on home
G G/F# Em D
And put your feet up for a while
C F
So much travlin' 'round can take away your smile
[Interlude]

And it's reach out old Virginia

Am7 D
It's time to come on home
G G/F# Em D
And put your feet up for a while

So much travlin' 'round can take away your smile
