CHORUS
   G         A
Oh I am not afraid
        A              Bm
to be a lone bohemian,
      G       A             Bm
I can paint a portrait of myself,
       G         A          A
I will call me a black Mona Lisa,
     Bm
Mona Lisa,
           G    A    Bm
Come to disco - ver
          G
I am your daughter


VERSE 1
         A          A          Bm
The sky above me is silent and empty,
G         A
  I am an island,
Bm
  A little freak of melancholy,
G           A
  But these hands,
       A             Bm
They unbead your rosary of wisdom,
G                 A
  Bewitched, spellbound I'm found
      Bm
and returned from superstition,
G            A
  You are my martyr,
      A              Bm
I'm a vestige of revolution,
   G
My alma, my mater,
    A
And now I can let go
   Bm
my old addictive solutions


VERSE 2
A
  I used to be a connoisseur
   G                  A
of hate, self hate, paternal hate,
A
Hate cum gratis,
                 G
I connected every kind,
A       A                   Bm
  I was sipping it like red wine,
    G     A
The insecurity was mine,
    A
The ties that bind were my design


BRIDGE
    A
The sun is still unkind
   G
to those like you and me,
A
  Seekers of sanctuary,
G
Though I'm not afraid,
    A
I'm sanctified and fortified,
  G
Because you sacrificed,
      A                G
I can call myself Mona Lisa,
                  A
Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa,
Bm
Men have adored you
