Joan Of Arc

Ab


[Verse]
Ab                       C
From the Hamilton to the A3
Db                         Db  C  Bb
 She must have been about 17 going on 18
Ab                                      C
 They used to undercharge her at the overpass
Db                   Db   C           Bb
 Cigarettes taste best when they taste like daydreams
Ab                    C
 But the days are long gone now
Db       Db    C     Bb
 But she still looks back
Ab              C                 Db
 Back to the first ever boy she loved
                     Bb
Who didn't love her back


[Chorus]
Db          Eb
My Joan of Arc
  Ab           Db
A martyr in my bed
                   Eb
There's three kind words
                      Ab
She never heard said


[Verse]
Ab                                C
I was caravans, bands, cans and backseats
Db                  Db       C          Bb
She was more diazepam, trams, tans and spreadsheets
Ab                         C
Looking back then we both laugh
Db                   Db       C       Bb
Funny how you never give a fuck when you're 20
Ab           C
But she was alone then
Db       Db    C     Bb
And it still makes her mad
Ab           C               Db
How the boys use to lead her on
                  Bb
Just to get in her pants


[Chorus]
Db          Eb
My Joan of Arc
  Ab           Db
A martyr in my bed
           Eb
Her lonely heart
    Ab              Db
Can find it hard to forgive and forget
                  Eb
The love she once had
      Ab               Db
Would run as soon as he read
                  Eb
Those three kind words
                      Ab
She never heard said


[Verse]
Ab                           C
So from the anagrams to the flat keys
Db                  Db     C          Bb
Spend most of our time now counting back from 30
Ab                            C
My old mate Terry just got discharged
Db                   Db       C       Bb
At her majesty's pleasure he was never that cosy
Ab                      C
But these older days we know now
Db           Db    C     Bb
Though they're not all that
Ab                   C           Db
They're some of the best ever days
                 Bb
That I'll ever have


[Chorus]
Db          Eb
My Joan of Arc
  Ab           Db
A martyr in my bed
           Eb
Her lonely heart
    Ab              Db
Can find it hard to forgive and forget
                  Eb
The love she once had
      Ab               Db
Would run as soon as he read
                  Eb
Those three kind words
                      Ab
She never heard said
