Joan chords by Heather Dale

Chords with lyrics

A augmentedA song where I especially like the lyrics, with an interesting rhythm.
As usual ear-transcribed, I think the song is actually higher than my chords so I
tried with Capo and everything but didn't find out yet.
Other ideas always welcome.


               Joan


Vese 1:

 C majorC
I am as god made me
 D MajorD
I have no desire
   G+G
For a mouth at my breast
  D MajorD
Or a pot on the fire
 C majorC
I heed the higher voices,
 D MajorD
I go where I'm sent
  D MajorD
To mow down the men who refuse to repent
   C majorC
I'm a scythe
   G+G
In a field full of briars

Chorus:
     A minorAm
And they won't call me mother
  C majorC
Or sister or wife
     D MajorD
They will know me or not
    G+G
by the strenght of my life
    A minorAm
I will burn with a light of my own
    G+G
They'll know me as Joan


Verse 2:

   C majorC
The courage of Catherine,
   D MajorD
The flames of the forge,
  G+G
The Sword of St. Michael,
  D MajorD
The blood of St. George,
 C majorC
I take what I'm given,
  D MajorD
I follow my truth,
  D MajorD
I gladly abandon the bloom of my youth,
     C majorC
I'm the lashing,
   G+G
that falls from the scourge.


Last verse and chorus the same.
