[Intro]
D A C G
        (x2)
G7
[Verse 1]
D                    A
Charleston girl in a darkened room
     C                  G
And you don't know her like I do
D                       A
We took the fire escape to her room
    C                   G
And got stoned, ragin' blind
D                     A
Left my money in the trustin' hands
        C                         G
Of them ol' Steele Brothers in a 'thrashgrass' band
D                  A                  C                 G
One day I'm gonna drive up there and give them half my mind
G7
[Verse 2]
D                         A
I don't know if it's the wine or the coke
      C                       G
That makes her sound like her jaw is broke
D                      A                   C                 G
She's workin' hard to make some sense, but she ain't got a dime
D                           A
I wish to God that I could help her out
C                           G
I wish I knew what she was talkin' 'bout
D                           A
I wish to God that I could get away
         C                 G    G7
but I'm way too drunk to drive
[Chorus]
D                          Am
   All I know is that when I am good and sober
      C                           G
I am leaving West Virginia for a while
D                            Am
   Don't know why, but every time I cross that river
              C                               G
Lord, there's somethin' tears me up, makes me wild
[Solo]
D A C G

G7
[Verse 3]
D                     A
Charleston girl with raven hair,
 C                  G
bloodshot eyes and skin so fair
D                     A                C              G
I believe if I could find my keys, I'd try to drive away
D                   A
I never planned to leave so soon
C                         G
I didn't know that he was sweet on you
D             A
Go ahead and take her
       C                    G     G7
'Cause she ain't worth the time
[Chorus]
D                          Am
   All I know is that when I am good and sober
      C                           G
I am leaving West Virginia for a while
D                           Am
   Don't know why but every time I cross that river
              C                               G     G7
Lord, there's somethin' tears me up, makes me wild
