[Verse 1]
   G                   C              G
In coal minin' country, green rollin' hills
        G                        D         G
Well my true love is waitin', for he loves me
G                   C        G
I had to go with my ramblin' ways
    G                               D            G
I'm always thinkin' of him, for the sweet love we made

[Chorus]
    Em                            G             Em
The last time I saw him we did the West Virginia waltz
    G             Em
The West Virginia waltz
C              D       G
No-one holds a flame to you

[Verse 2]
   G                           C                G
So I came back home, with what treasures I have made
        G                         D          G
Just to be your lovin' wife, with kids on the way
   G                       C           G
So I found your oath and I ran to your gaze
      G                                 D         G
I was calling out your name but now you sleep under the clay

[Chorus]
    Em                             G             Em
The last time I saw him we did the West Virginia waltz
    G             Em
The West Virginia waltz
C              D       G
No-one holds a flame to you

[Outro]

    Em                            G             Em
The last time I saw him we did the West Virginia waltz
    G             Em
The West Virginia waltz
C              D       G
No-one holds a flame to you
    Em         G             Em
Well we did the West Virginia waltz
    G             Em
The West Virginia waltz
C              D       G
No-one holds a flame to you
