CARRY ME BACK TO OLD VIRGINNY
By: James Bland
Ray Charles
Key: Ab
4 4 4* 4 -3* 3* -2 -1* 3*
Car-ry me back to old Vir-gin-ny,
-1* 3* -3* 4 4
There's where the cot-ton
4* 4 4 3* 3 3* -3*
and the corn and �ta-toes grow,
4 4* 4 4 -3* 3*
There's where the birds war-ble
-3* 3* -2 -1* 3*
sweet in the spring time,
-1* 3* -3* 4 4* 4
There's where the old dark-ey 's
4 -3* 3* 3 3*
heart am long�d to go.
-3* -3* 4 4* 4*
There's where I la-bored
-5*5* 5 5 5* -5* 5
so hard for old mas-sa,
-5* 5* 5 5 -3* 3* 3* 3* 3 3* -3*
Day af-ter day in the field of yel-low corn,
4 4* 4 4 -3* 3* -3* 3* -2 -1* 3*
No place on earth do I love more sin-cere-ly,
-1* 3* -3* 4 4
Than old Vir-gin-ny,
4*4 4 -3* 3* 3 3*
the state where I was born.
Carry me back to old Virginny,
There let me live 'till I wither and decay,
Long by the old Dismal Swamp have I wandered,
There's where this old darky's life am passed away.
Massa and misses have long gone before me,
Soon we will meet on that bright and golden shore.
There we'll be happy and free from all sorrow,
There's where we'll meet and we'll never part no more.
Carry me back to old Virginny,
There's where the cotton and the corn and taters grow,
There's where the birds warble sweet in the spring time,
There's where this old darky's heart am long to go.
