Intro: It's so cold here in Chi-cago the wind can cut you like a knife Another day, another doll-ar what a way to spend a life She was young and I was restless I set out to win the world Said good-bye to my Virg-ini-a and my Blue Ridge Mountain girl I can see her standing by the window and there's nothing sadder in the world Than those green eyes, all red from cry-ing on my Blue Ridge Mountain girl Instrumental Verse I can see her standing by the window and there's nothing sadder in the world Than those green eyes, all red from cry-ing on my Blue Ridge Mountain girl In my hands I hold a letter says she made a pretty bride And as I lie here in the dark-ness she lies by another's side I've got money in my pockets silver rings that I wear But I'd trade them all this min-ute for the gold that's in her hair I can see her standing by the window and there's nothing sadder in the world Than those green eyes, all red from cry-ing on my Blue Ridge Mountain girl I can see her standing by the window and there's nothing sadder in the world Than those green eyes, all red from cry-ing on my Blue Ridge Mountain girl On my Blue Ridge Mountain girl
