Now the flames, they followed [D] Joan of Arc,
[C] As she came riding [G] through the dark,
[A] No moon to [D] keep her armor bright, [A] No man to get her through [G] this very smoky [D] night.
She said, I'm tired of the war, [C]
I want the kind of work [G] I had before,
[A] A [Em] wedding dress or [D] something white, To [A] wear upon [G] my swollen [D]
appetite.

Well, _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ I'm glad to hear you [D] talk this way, _
_ [C] You know I've watched you [G] riding every day,
_ _ _ [A] And something in [D] me yearns to win, [A] _ _
Such a cold [G] and _ _ lonesome [D] heroine. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ And who are you, [D] she sternly spoke, _ _ [C] _

_ _ _ _ [G] _ And deep into [D] his fiery heart, _ [C] _
He took the [G] dust of Joan of Arc,
