A#m
When I was young I had a friend
C#
Father said she was make-pretend
D#m                                  C#     Cm
Joanna was her name and life was innocence
A#m
Doctors tried to claw her out
C#
And pills tried to push her down
D#m                                C#     Cm
She was part of me, she came back again

    A#m
But not before long
     C#
When all was said and done
  D#m                             C#    Cm
I knew that it was really her and me
    A#m
The boys in the crowd
     C#
They said they’d beat her out
       D#m                           C#   Cm
They’d exorcise this little witch in me

A#m    D#m       C#
By the time that all
                   A#m
The teachers had arrived
   G#      Fm
It was too late
                       A#m
They bludgeoned her to death
   D#m      C#
Outside the gate
                  A#m     G#     Fm
She slipped away into the summer rain
                  F5   Fsus4  F
And never was the same
A#m  D#m  C#
Oh Joanna dear
                          A#m      G#   Fm
I thought this song would make you disappear
                   A#m
And banish you somehow
       D#m          A#m
Though as I sing it now
  D#m                F#dim
I hear your voice so loud
                   F5   Fsus4  F
So there can be no doubt
                       A#m  D#m  C#
That somehow you crept out
