  G           F                               C 
I knew a wild woman, she threw a party on her grave 
                           Am 
She went there tapping her cane and sipping champagne 
D 
She's a wild woman 

And she makes me feel so tame 
G                      F 
 I can take her in a foot race, but I can't take her anywhere 
C                          Am                              D 
 She laughs at all the pop stars, and she doesn't even care if they hear her 

She's a game of solitaire 


Am                  D                    G                 C 
Tell 'em that story one more time, Joan, I won't look away 
Am                  D                G            C 
Let me leave you in laughter, let me go get you a plate 
Am                Bm            C                Cm 
When I tell you I love you, and you tell me, "Okay" 
G                  Em             C       D 
I know you believe me, and that's love in your way

    G             F                                  C 
The curse of a wild woman is that she doesn't suffer fools 
                       Am                           D 
She won't make cups of tea, and she doesn't bandage bruised egos 

Or superficial wounds 
G                     F                                  C 
 But once I was sat beside her, when a fog rolled on the land 
                    Am                             D 
She spoke in sacred language every soul could understand 

And with a broken body, many were healed by her hand 


Am                        D                 G             C 
Let's go dancing, you can lean on me, Joan, I won't even sway 
     Am                     D                G                     C 
I'll find you a five-dollar blackjack table, make some dealer's day 
    Am                Bm            C                 Cm 
And when I tell you I love you, and you tell me, "Okay" 
G                  Em             C       D 
I know you believe me, and that's love in your way

Outro 
G              F     C D 
 I knew a wild woman 
G             F          C D 
 Touched by a wild woman 
G              F          C D 
 Believed by a wild woman 
      G                      F     C 
To be known, known by a wild woman 
      D 
A wild, wild, wild woman
