Back

be-

fore

these

cal-

loused

hands

did

all

this

work

We

used

to sit

up

at

the

flats

Act-

ing

like

we'd

live

fo-

re-

ver

Get-

ting

high

and

skip-

ping

class

I

re-

ckon

we

we-

re

heat-

hens

But

in

her

eyes

we

were

saints

Now

you're

cal-

ling

all

the

boys

home

As

heav-

ens

an-

gels

car-

ry

her

a-

way

I

will

fol-

low

you

to

Vir-

gie

Al-

though

it

hurts

me

so

To

lay

to

rest

this

moun-

tain

beau-

ty

That

the

Lord's

cal-

led

home

Can't

you

see

her

up

in

glo-

ry

I

can

see

her

through

the

pines

Back

when

all

us

boys

were

try-

ing

To

make

sense

of

all

these

strings

I

can

see

her

in

the

corn-

er

Sing-

ing

a-

long

to

all

our

cra-

zy

dreams

I

will

fol-

low

you

to

Vir-

gie

Al-

though

it

hurts

me

so

To

lay

to

rest

this

moun-

tain

beau-

ty

That

the

Lord's

cal-

led

home

Can't

you

see

her

up

in

glo-

ry

I

can

see

her

through

the

pines

I

will

fol-

low

you

to

Vir-

gie

'Cause

that's

what

us

boys

are

for

To

help

you

out

when

you

get

wea-

ry

And

you

can't

go

no

mo-

re

Can't

you

see

her

up

there,

Co-

dy?

I

can

see

her

through

the

pines

Saying

boys

be

good
