Train - Meet Virginia

Standard tuning (EADG)


I have updated the Meet Virginia tab as the original was, I think, based on a
live version rather than the studio version, which is quite different. Some
parts of this tab are thanks to the original by GOUGEMAN, the rest was my own
work.

Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture gab Average	#1 by gab gonzalez at Apr 7, 1975 at 11:14 PM EST
	i agree, to me Virginia seems like a beautiful idea, but this song definitely makes me want to name my daughter Virginia lol. Well she wants to live her life Then she thinks about her life Pulls her hair back as she screams I don't really wanna live this life No no, no no, no no, no no "She only drinks coffee at midnight When the moment is not right. Her timing is quiet unusual"- meaning that she does what she wants, and the conditions dont matter to her, and she wont do something just because society tells her to do something at a certain time. "You see her confidence is tragic, but her intuition magic And the shape of her body, unusual"- dont really get this line, but i take it to mean that she isnt confident, but he thinks her body is beautiful anyways, and her intuition is telling her that he really thinks that.

No Picture Ben Average	#2 by Ben Asay at Jun 17, 1979 at 10:41 PM EST
	totally 100% agree with inlovewithled...she couldn't have said it better...:)

	Surprised no one has commented on this song. I just like the portrait the song paints. "Just like me hates to be alone." This sums up the song, finding someone just as messed up as you but you love that beauty. But the problems are still there.
