Intro: C#m, A, E, B x2
        C#m    C#m/B   F#
in the lush virginia hills 

      A          B            C#m
they kept her as long as they could 

                          C#m/B
cause they knew when the white brother 

F#    A           B
found white shell beads

C#m                A 
wrapped around her skin --

   B   C# 
a life giving river -- 

A        B    C#
her body open as will his hand 

    A             B            C
and with a "goodbye" there she goes

C#         B   F#           C#
she may betray all that she loves 

         B              F#        C#
and even wait for their savior to come 

            B       F#             C#
and in some things, maybe he'll be right 

       B          F#            A 
but as always the thing that he loves 

              E         B          F#           A        E
he will change from her sunrise to clockwise to soul trading 

             B            F#
still she'll lay down her body 

A          E         C#
covering him all the same
C#m, A, E, B
    C#m        C#m/B    F#
so hundreds of years go by 

        A        B           C#m
she's a girl out working her trade 

                C#m/B       F#
and she loses a little each day 

A         B         C#m
to ghetto pimps and presidents 

    A       B          C#
who try and arouse her turquoise serpents 

A         B                 C
she can't recall what they represent 

A                B           C
and when you ask, she won't know
she will betray ..... C#m, A, E
    B  C#m A E B
oh .......

     C#m  A  F#m

         C#m

F#m    E    B

F#m        C#m

F#m        C#m
you won't even you ...
