The Virgin

B                   C#m 
She went off to the city 
   E                         B 
To find what she was looking for 
B               C#m 
To identify, to really try 
    E                  B 
To  find herself  some hope 
B                       C#m 
With the summer sun for laughing 
                        E                
And the winter rain did pour 
        B             C#m 
She was lovelier from learning 
         E              B 
And from living, loving more 
B                         C#m 
From her dancing love and young soul 
        E              B 
And the gypsies in her dream 
       B                    C#m 
To the pulse of stark acceptance 
         E               B 
When the winds began to freeze 
                        C#m            
With no curfews left to hold her 
      C#m                  E 
And no walls to shield her pain 
        B                   C#m 
Finding out that facts were older 
         E               B 
And that life forms are insane. 
B               C#m 
The presence of protection seemed 
   E                B 
To fade, as did her doubt 
                    C#m 
That she now was no exception 
            E                   B 
Nor was the love who pushed her out 
            
Though the streets cried out, 
       C#m 
Go, homesick 
         C#m                    E 
Virtues strength of mind would ring 
       B           C#m 
In the maladies of meaning 
        E                    B 
The sad song she learned to sing. 
B                     C#m 
Now, her teachers and philosophers 
        E              B 
And the poet's silver throat 
                         C#m              E              B 
Are the vessels which on wisdom's karmic  ocean she will float. 
                 C#m 
Was this her revolution, 
                       E 
Just a child in love's crusade, 
         B                     C#m 
With the question in her innocence 
            E                 B 
Through the lies her eyes betrayed?
