Damien Jurado - East Virginia Lyrics
I was born and raised in East Virginia
North Carolina I did go
There I met a pretty young maiden
Her name and age I do not know
Lips they were a ruby red
And on her breast she wore white lilies
Where I long to lay my head
I'd rather be in some dark holler
Where the sun won't ever shine
Than to see you wed another
Girl you know you'd never be mine
I was born and raised in East Virginia
There I met a pretty young maiden
Her name and age I do not know

Damien Jurado East Virginia Comments
Great version - liked the video effect.
hey, thanks, I'm glad you liked it.. to sing something that people think is moving and powerful is very pleasing to me and what it's all about as far as I am concerned.. I love this old style of folk music, simple but so full of emotion and charachter, born no doubt from the hardship of the times
all the best
joe
hey, thanks. I tune the bottom E down to D and really just hit the bottom four strings
it is a combination of
550000
330000
530000
350000
pretty simple really
I think if you tune the top E down to D and the B sting down to A? maybe you can hit all the strings without them sounded discordant
hope that helps.. thanks as always for your support and for watching!!
Spit it out Joe!
Awesome man. Dug the aggressiveness!!!!!
Five stars! You need to get signed Joe :]
