Capo on the 3rd fret.

Verse 1:
         C              F
	Way down in Virginia
          C                            G
	Amongst the tall grown sugar canes
          C                        F
	Lived a simple man and a domineering hen
               G                   C
	And a rose of a different name


Verse 2:
          C                    F
	The first time i fell lightly
           C                              G
	I was standing in the drizzling rain
          C                          F
	With a trembling hand and a bottle of gin
               G                   C
	And a rose of a different name


Chorus:
          C                          F
	The devil made me do it the first time
            C                            G
	The second time i done it on my own
          C                     F
	Lord put a handle on a simple handed man
             G                              C
	And help me leave that black rose alone


Verse 3:
         C                   F
	When the devil made that woman
         C                           G
	Lord she threw the pattern away
         C                                F
	She was built for speed with the tools you need
            G                     C
	To make a new fool every day


Verse 4:
         C               F
	Way down deep and dirty
            C                   G
	On the darker side of shame
	    C                            F
	I caught a cane cuttin' man with a bottle of gin
          G                         C
	With a rose of a different name


Chorus(x2).
