[Intro]
G
[Verse]
G D Now the flames they followed Joan of Arc C G As she came riding through the dark A D No moon to keep her armour bright A G D No man to get her through this dark, and smoky night
[Verse]
G D She said, "I'm tired of the war C G I want the kind of work I had before A D A wedding dress or something white A G D To wear upon my swollen appetite".
[Chorus]
D Am La la la, la la la, la la la la la la C G D G la, la la la la la la
[Verse]
G D Well, I'm glad to hear you talk this way C G I've watched you riding every day A D And something in me, that yearns to win A G D Such a cold and lonesome heroine
[Verse]
G D "And who are you?" she sternly spoke C G To the one beneath the smoke A D "Why, I'm fire," he replied A G D "And I love your solitude, I love your pride."
[Chorus]
D Am La la la, la la la, la la la la la la C G D G la, la la la la la la,
[Verse]
G D "Well then fire, make your body cold C G I'm going to give you mine to hold," A D And saying this she climbed inside A G D To be his one, to be his only bride
[Verse]
G D And deep into his fiery heart C G He took the dust of Joan of Arc A D And high above the wedding guests A G D He hung the ashes of her lovely wedding dress
[Chorus]
D Am La la la, la la la, la la la la la la C G D G la, la la la la la
[Verse]
G D It was deep into his fiery heart C G He took the dust of Joan of Arc A D And then she clearly understood A G D If he was fire, oh she must be wood
[Verse]
G D I saw her wince, I saw her cry C G I saw the glory in her eye A D Myself I long for love and light A G D But must it come so cruel, must it be so bright?
[Chorus]
D Am La la la, la la la, la la la la la la C G D G la, la la la la la la,
