Pre>thanx kirk anderson (kanderso@wheatonma.edu)
for chords, he writes:
For the basic intro, verse, chorus riff play em
at fret 7
Then pull off fingers 2, 3, and 4: voila the
other chord: 777777,
Though I don’t strum the low e. (x77777 = bm11)
Slide it up from fret 6 when you feel moved to.
rinse. repeat.

Em		  bm11 	  em	   bm11
The mona lisa’s sister doesn’t smile
Em		    bm11	  em	    bm11
She tried to pose but only for a while
Em 		bm11 em		  bm11
Leonardo sent her home  since then she has lived
alone
D			    c	 d			 c
With her few belongings and a copy   of a
painting of herself unhappy
G 	    c		  d
She is going to burn it when she’s ready

Chorus:
Em		bm11	  em	 bm11
Get started, start a fire	    (4 times)

Marilyn was lying all alone with an empty bottle
by the phone
Kennedy was not around she was cold when she was
found
But she’d gone where goddesses are sleeping
Where the molten tongues of flame are leaping
Or where the angel’s hearts are heating
(instrumental verse, intro rpt)

Joan of arc was burning at the stake somebody had
made a big mistake
She had lit a cigarette in an aiport where you
get
Your fingers taken off for smoking.
Meanwhile up the road a factory’s choking
The ones who killed her work there I’m not joking
