Chords for Joni Mitchell- Don Juan's Reckless Daughter (Album Version)

[C] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] I'm Don Juan's reckless daughter, I've emo'd two days on your tail
[G] Those two bald-headed days in November [F] before their first snowflake sale _
_ Out _ [G] on the raft in subtle [Bb] planes of [C] mystery, slip-throng spirit cop, [G] roval as a nickel chief
[C] Spreakin' up an old jukebox, he [Gm] says, [F] snakes along the rubble classes
Eagles in jet trails, he says, coils around [Bb] feathers and [C] talons on steel
[F] Gravel _ under the bellyplates, he says, wind in the wings
He said, fruit clagging its tail in the [C] dust, snake kite [F] flying on a string _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ [A] I come from open prairie, given some wisdom and a lot of [C] jive
[G] Last night the ghost of my old ideal [F] dream went on channel 5
_ _ And [C] it [G] howled so [A] spooky for [Bb] its eagle [C] soul, I nearly broke down and cried
[G] The slip-throng spirit laughed at me, he says, [C] your serpent cannot be denied
[F] A serpent of the whiskey bars, they love the romance of the crime
But didn't I see a neon sign, [C] fester on your hotel blind
_ [F] And a country road come off the wall, he swooped down on the crowd at the bar
Put me at the top of your danger [C] list just for being so much like [F] you are _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] [A] You're a coward against the altitude, you're a coward against the [G] flesh
Coward, caught between yes [F] and no, reckless just time on the line, oh yes, yes, yes
_ _ [G] Reckless, [F] breezin' in the place above [C] your changing traffic lights
[G] Coward, slinkin' down the hall to [C] another restless night
_ [F] As we center behind the eight ball, as we rock between the sheets
As we siphon the colored language [Dm] off the [C] barns and the streets
_ [Dm] _ [F] Here in good old God save America, the home of the brave and the free
We are all hopelessly oppressed cowards, [C] some duality, [F] restless _ multiplicity
_ _ _ [C] _ [A] Restless for streets and honky tonks, restless for home and [G] routine
Restless for country, safety and [C] her, [F] restless for the likes of Reckless _ _
[Dm] Restless _ [G] [F] sweeps like fire and rain [C] over virgin wilderness
_ [G] Growls like cookers and thieves [C] with bow-clocked tenements
_ _ [F] Behind my bow-clocked door, the evil and the serpent are at war indeed
Serpent fighting for blind desire, [C] evil for clarity
[F] What strange prizes these battles bring, these hectic joys, these weary blues
Puffed up and spreading when I think I win, [C] down and shaken when I think I _ [F] lose _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] There are rivets up here in this eagle hole, there are boxcars down there on your snake
And [G] we are twins of spirit, [F] no matter which route home we take or what we forsee
We're _ [G] gonna come up to the [Dm] eyes of clarity [C] and we'll go down to the beads of dial
[G] There is danger and education [C] in living out such a reckless lifestyle
[F] I touched you on the central plains, it was plain to train my twin
It was just plain shadow to train [Gm] shadow, but [C] to me it was skin to skin
[F] The spirit talks inspectors, he talks mother earth to father sky
Self-indulgence to [C] self-denial, man to woman, [F] skills to feathers, you and I
_ [C] _ _ Evil in the sky, you and I
_ _ _ [F] Snakes _ in the grass, you and I
_ [C] _
Crows fly, you and I
_ [F] _ _ _
Oh, oh, oh
_ _ [C] You and I, you and I
Father God, you and I
_ [F] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] You and I, you and I, you and I, you and I, oh, you [C] and I _
