performed by Waylon Jennings.
Capo on the 3rd fret.
Verse 1: EA Way down in Virginia EB Amongst the tall grown sugar canes EA Lived a simple man and a domineering hen BE And a rose of a different name
Verse 2: EA The first time i fell lightly EB I was standing in the drizzling rain EA With a trembling hand and a bottle of gin BE And a rose of a different name
Chorus: EA The devil made me do it the first time EB The second time i done it on my own EA Lord put a handle on a simple handed man BE And help me leave that black rose alone
Verse 3: EA When the devil made that woman EB Lord she threw the pattern away EA She was built for speed with the tools you need BE To make a new fool every day
Verse 4: EA Way down deep and dirty EB On the darker side of shame EA I caught a cane cuttin' man with a bottle of gin BE With a rose of a different name
Chorus(x2).
