(ver. 1)
Tori Amos
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
virginia
         C#m
you won't even you....
F#m    E    B
Oh, virginia 
F#m        C#m
you won't even you ...
F#m        C#m
you won't even you ... 
F#m          E           C#m     
you can't remember your name .....
A E B A/C# A F B C#m
