 D                           A                D
Dark and stormy weather, it still inclines to rain,
                 G    D          A                        D
the clouds hang over center, my love's gone away on the train.

        D                         A                   D
    We met, loved and parted, I thought the world of you,
                  G      D          A                D
    you left me broken hearted, to me you proved untrue.

          D                            A               D
    I'm leaving old Virginia, there's nothing here for me,
                G     D               A              D
    I know you love another, in the grave I'd rather be.

 D                           A                D
Dark and stormy weather, it still inclines to rain,
                 G    D          A                        D
the clouds hang over center, my love's gone away on the train.

    You told me that you loved me, I believed just what you said,
                 G     D         A                D
    but now you love another, I wish that I were dead.

                 G    D          A                        D
the clouds hang over center, my love's gone away on the train.
