[Verse 1]
   D           A
If Joan of Arc had a heart
          G            D
Would she give it as a gift
   D              A
To such as me who longs to see
       G              D
how an angel ought to be

[Verse 2]
    B                  F#
Her dreams to give her heart away
        E                B
Like an orphan along the way
    B                 F#
She cared so much she offered up
    E           B
Her body to the grave

nice tab, another nice way of playing it, is using open chords of D A G and back to D, middle bit of CGFC is fine after that played open too. nice job on the tab and thank you :))

I'm pretty sure the lyric is "like an orphan on a wave" since the last word needs to rhyme with "grave"
