[Chorus]
G C
There's a place where I come from
D G
A little out of view
C
There's a Sunday matinee
D G
On Virginia Avenue
[Verse]
G C
Mrs. Williams and Mrs. Bean
D G
Talking in their front yard
C
Will that father-son auto shop
D G
Ever get that car to start
C
Down the street you hear those dogs
D G
Barking at the backfiring trucks
C
Nobody ever says anything
D G
Just wait for them to give up
[Chorus]

[Verse]
G C
Preston Sell won't leave me alone
D G
He wants to take the bikes into town
C
Gets quiet when he hears me say
D G
Hey, we better turn around
C
See that house just across the way
D G
It's for rent again
C
It's been passed from the poor white trash
D G
Down to the Mexicans
[Chorus]

D G
On Virginia Avenue
[Verse]
G C
Summertime, it came and went
D G
Down at the old folks' home
C
Where saying goodbye gets you a cry
D G
Then you leave them all alone
C
My mama still talks too much
D G
And my daddy's a youngest son
C
He was never quite satisfied
D G
She was born to run
[Chorus] x2
