Album: Carry Me Back Intro: / D - - G / D - A - / D - - G / D A D - / (x2)
Well I Dcome from the valley, I'm a rebel Gboy. DBorn on the banks of the AShenandoah. In 'D61, I went to the Gwar, To Dwin one Afor DVirginia!
repeat intro: / D - - G / D - A - / D - - G / D A D - /
Ya my Dbrother went first and they called me Gto. I was Dgreen as clover in the Amorning dew. So I Dmarched to the drum and I sang to the Gtune. DCarry me Aback to DVirginia!
(Bridge 1:)
AFire in the cannon, Dwater in the well, GRaced through the valley with a Drebel yell. AI learned right quick how to Dmarch like hell and Gaffix that Abayonet.
[Chorus:)
DWont ya carry me Gback? DWont ya carry me Gback? DCarry me Aback to DVirginia.
Fiddle solo: / D - G - / D - G - / D A D - / [Verse 2:]
With a Dsword and a saddle, Powder in the Ggun. We Dthought for a minute our Afight was done. So they Dlined us up to the metals Garm, And Dhammered us Ainto the Dquicksand. Then they Dburned that valley in a blaze of Gfire, DCut through the lands like a Ared hot iron. Til the Dmen took cover where the horses Gpiled, Then we Dshivered and then Ahold Dagainst them.
[Bridge 2:]
But the Awar raged on like Dflames of hell, We Gdug through the pockets of the Dones who fell, ADressed in rags and we Date that grass When they Gcut off our legs we Acried!
[Chorus:]
DWont ya carry me Gback? DWont ya carry me Gback? DCarry me Aback to DVirginia. (repeat chorus)

And they Ddied in the valley, Died in the Gswamp, On the Dbanks of the river where the Awhitetail jumped. DDied in the ditches, Died in the Gfields, In the Dbelly of a wagon for a womans to heal DDied in the war, Starved in the Gcamps. DLocked in the prisons of a Ameaner man. DSpilled our blood in the fight to Gdefend And to Dbury the tome of a-dixieland!
[Bridge 3:]
ADown in Alabama, Ddown in Caroline, GWay down in Gerogie, on the DTennesee line. We Afought for the rebels, and DRobert E. Lee, Now we Gwant to go home to AVirginia. Say we Gwant to go home to AVirginia!
[Chorus:]
DWont ya carry me Gback? DWont ya carry me Gback? DCarry me Aback to DVirginia. DWont ya carry me Gback? DWont ya carry me Gback? I wDanna be Aburied in DVirginia!
