Far away on a hill
To a sunny mountainside

Many years ago we parted
A
My little Ruth and I
E7 A
From this sunny mountainside

She clung to me and trembled
When I told her we must part
D
She said "Don't go, my darling
A
It almost breaks my heart
E7 A
To think of you so far apart"

Carry me back to old Virginia
E7 A
Back to my Clinch Mountain home

Carry me back to old Virginia

Back to my old Mountain home

A
I fold my arms around her
Leaned her head upon my breast
D
I told her I would wed her
A
When I came back from the west
E7 A
At my old Clinch Mountain home
A
In my hand I hold a picture
Of the old home far away
D
In the other one my sweetheart
A
I'm thinking of today
E7 A
On the sunny mountainside
D A
Carry me back to old Virginia
E7 A
Back to my Clinch Mountain home

Carry me back to old Virginia
E7 A
Back to my old Mountain home
Instrumental: A D A E7 A

My mother's old and feeble
My father's getting gray

I'm going back to Virginia

And I expect to stay

At my old Clinch Mountain home

Carry me back to old Virginia
E7 A
Back to my Clinch Mountain home
D A
Carry me back to old Virginia
E7 A
Back to my old Mountain home
