[Intro]
G

[Verse 1]

Far away on a hill to a sunny mountain side
C G
Many years ago we parted, my little Ruth and I
D7 G
From the sunny mountain side

[Verse 2]
G
She clung to me and trembled, when I told her we must part
C G
She said don't go my darling it almost breaks my heart
D7 G
To think of you so far apart

[Chorus]
C G D7 G
Carry me back to old Virginia back to my Clinch mountain home
C G D7 G
Carry me back to old Virginia back to my old mountain home

[Instrumental]
G C G D7 G

[Verse 3]
G
I fold my arms around her leaned her head upon my breast
C G
I told her I would wed her when I came back from the west
D7 G
At my old Clinch mountain home

[Verse 4]
G
In my hand I hold a picture of the old home far away
C G
In the other one my sweetheart I'm thinking of today
D7 G
On the sunny mountain side

[Chorus]
C G D7 G
Carry me back to old Virginia back to my Clinch mountain home
C G D7 G
Carry me back to old Virginia back to my old mountain home

[Instrumental]
G C G D7 G

[Verse 5]
G
My mother's old and feeble my father's getting gray
C G
I'm going back to Virginia and I expect to stay
D7 G
At my old Clinch mountain home

[Chorus]
C G D7 G
Carry me back to old Virginia back to my Clinch mountain home
C G D7 G
Carry me back to old Virginia back to my old mountain home
