Dancing Virginia

D  G   D   A

[Verses 1, 2 and 3]
G            C
The moon has come out tonight
G          C
Round as a crying eye
G          C
Round as a ringle of smoke
Em         D
From your smoke signal sky

G        C
I am the oak and the maple
G      C
I have covered my roots
G           C
You are the dancing Virginia
Em       D
In black leather boots

G         C
Come as a silver morning
G           C
Come as the dragonfly
G          C
Come as my sleeping sister
Em          D
Through the midnight sky

[Chorus]
A                  D      E
Cover me with your fire's ashes
A                  D        E
Cover me with your midnight veil
A                  D     E
Cover me with your smoky river
A         D       E
Cover me, dancing Virginia

[Verses 4 and 5]
G              C
There's a pain in my side
Continúa después del anuncio
G        C
And it's killing me
G         C
There's a field of crows
Em    D
Now a black sea

G          C
And I have called upon the hills
G          C
And I have called upon the soil
G             C
And they have screamed in my ear
Em          D
Where's your heart boy

[Chorus]
A                  D      E
Cover me with your fire's ashes
A                  D        E
Cover me with your midnight veil
A                  D     E
Cover me with your smoky river
A         D       E
Cover me, dancing Virginia

Ooooooh (x a bunch)

[Verses 6 and 7]
G            C
Your moon has come out tonight
G          C
Round as a crying eye
G          C
Round as a ringlet of smoke
Em        D
From your smoke signal sky

G         C
Come as a silver morning
G           C
Come as the dragonfly
G          C
Come as my sleeping sister
Em          D
Through the midnight sky

[Chorus]
A                  D      E
Cover me with your fire's ashes
A                  D        E
Cover me with your midnight veil
A                  D     E
Cover me with your smoky river
A         D       E
Cover me, dancing Virginia

A                  D     E
Cover me with your revelation
A                  D        E
Cover me with your sorrow's tale
A                  D    E
Cover me with your holy water
A         D       E
Cover me, dancing Virginia

[Bridge]
    D             G
The gray elephant folds of adventure
    D             G
The blue oasis of meditation
    D                    G
The feathered touch of a sleepy 
afternoon
    D                 G
Beneath the tent of a palmetto haven
        D              G
And I'm rising upwards from my feet
   D            G                 
As children run side by side with 
      A
their elation
