You know I wish I was in Richmond
You know I do , I wish I was back home
You know I wish I was in Richmond
The land I was raised , the place I've always known
And now I'm waiting in New York City
The rain is falling , no one seems to see
And all the salesman , they take notice
Forget the rushing lives , for the rushing brides to be
You know I wish I was in Richmond
You know I do , I wish I was back home
She didn't change me , she forgave me
So now it's time , time for me to leave
Like broken glass in my broken hands
I'm broken down , this I do believe
You know I wish I was in Richmond
You know I do , I wish I was back home
You know I wish I was in Richmond
The land I was raised , the place I've always known
As a frost comes , I've learned some
Not to make the same mistakes again
Laws are learned , as rule books burn
But what I do know , leads to still my friend
I'm going back , back to Richmond
You know I am , you know I'm going home
I'm going back , back to Richmond
The land I was raised , the place that I call home
Between certain verses Joe plays a small riff in which
the easiest way to play, I found, is like this:
