_ Dave's [G] time tune is banjo, I'll brag on him a little bit.
Dave last year, we're real proud of him, he went down to the 2008 Vandalia gathering and
competed in the West Virginia State Bluegrass Banjo Competition and he took first place.
We're real proud of him on that.
_ _ _ _ What a lot of folks don't know, he also [B] plays the mandolin and I guess he felt he didn't
have much to lose after winning his [E]
award on the banjo, so he picked up a mandolin _ and
[B] competed in the West Virginia State Mandolin Competition and he got second place.
We're real proud of him [C] on that.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ He's going to milk it for as long as he can.
_ _ Well now we've got to make the big stuff, the banjo. _ _
Well that's still a [C] banjo picking tune. _ _
First time I ever heard this song it was a [D#] banjo tune, I'd never [Em] heard anybody sing it.
_ I just heard it picked instrumentally.
Now [D#] we're going to get Jamie Lynn to sing on it because she does a great job.
This [C] is my beautiful wife Jamie Lynn back here, hot in the back.
_ _ She won't be hot and blown, we'll get her soon.
You ready? _ _ _
_ _ Here we go.
[G] _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Em] Oh sorry.
_ _ [B] _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ [C] _ _ _ _
That's where the power starts rolling right? _

_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ If I was on [F] a jumping raft [C] _ I'd sail away to the west
I'd sail all around [F] this whole wide world
Get on [G] out of [C] the bay _
If I had a suit [F] of armor set
[C] I'd put [A] on a mini-nude [C] vest
_ _ Feastin' for things [F] that I'll never have
[C] Eatin' my sweet life away
_ If I was [F] on top of a mountain top
[C] I'd sail [G]
away to the west

_ _ You cause me pain, [F] you cause me [C] bone
You cause me pain, my _ heart
Oh this [D] lonesome, I'm in [F] a good old [C] time
I'm on [G] my way back [C] home
If I was [F] on top of a mountain top
[C] I'd sail away [G] to the west
I'd sail [F] all around this whole wide world
[C] Get on out [G] _ _
[C] of the bay
So _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ if _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ you see [F] that no good girl
[C] There's something you can tell her _ _
She'd need not blow [F] her time away
[C] And try to steal my boy _
If I was [F] on top of a mountain [C] top
I'd sail away [D] to the west
I'd [Gm] _ _ sail all around [F] this whole wide [C] world
Get on out of the bay _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [F] Oh [C] yeah! _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ [G] _ _ [C] _ _ _ If I was [F] on top of a mountain [C] top
I'd sail away to the west
_ I'd sail all around this whole wide world
Get on [G] out of the bay
Get on out _ [C] _ of the bay _
Yeah!

_ _ _ [G] I thought _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ we were a part of the show where we swapped instruments.
We're not there yet. _ _
While we're up in this gear we'll get Jamelan to sing us another one.
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ We got any West Virginia [B] natives here?
I know we're all from far up north.
Is there anybody here from West Virginia?
Got one back there.
I see him waving.
_ _ We're going to put that, send that one out to him.
[C#m] West Virginia boy [G] back there.
Being from West Virginia, we get away from [D#] home.
We play [G] out of state more than we get to play back home.
And we love where we're from.
So we, on about the best weekend is to sing about it every now and then.
So [C] we're going to do one.
This is called West Virginia, My Home. _ _
Here we go.

It's been _ _ _ years now since [F] I left _ there.
_ _ _ _ _ And this _ city of life's about got the [Am] best [G] of me.
