Book Of Saints
Intro:  E   Am   C   Eb  D  
EHey lookee here at the book of saints
AmWhat they are is what you ainC't
EbYou go on all cripple-fisted
DYou know you're strong enough to lift this
E    Am        C    Eb    D
EHow's it feel to play Saint Joan?
AmNothin’ to what she did poor buCrnt bone
EbI will not martyr, I will not martyr
DI will hit you harder
GI am made of iron, Iron maiden bleBederC  
GKeep back, keep back a hBundred metresC  
G       Eb        G         Eb
EThey saw Saint Agnes being good
AmSo on the road they went to kill herC  
EbOne strike of his sword killed that little girl
She cried, I bDelong to my savior
GI am made of iron, Iron maiden bleBederC  
GKeep back, keep back a hBundred metresC  
GI will not martyr, I Cwill not martyr
I will lEbive long and happy on your bread and water
GI will not martyr, I Cwill not martyr
I made Ebyou monsters, I can make you harder
GWhat if you missed it, what if you missed it?
EbShould I have jumped and you resisted?
GWhat if you missed it, what if you missed it?
EbShould I have jumped and you resisted?
GAh              Eb  
GAh              Eb  
E               Am      Eb              D
EHow's it feel to play Saint Claire?
AmOur bodies are not made of brass
They're Cmade of thread and air
EbAnd blood comes out in pints and litres
DKeep your paws off filthy cheaters
EIt takes two men to hold me down, it takF#mes three men to hold me down, it tGakes five men to hold me 
Adown
EIt takes two men to hold me down, it takF#mes nine men to hold me down, it Gtakes twelve men to hold me down
AmWith a broken bone and a gashed-up crownD  
GI am made of iron, Iron maiden bleBederC  
GDon’t you know how fast I can run Ba hundred metresC  
GI will not martyr, I Cwill not martyr
I will Eblive long and happy on your bread and water
GI will not martyr, I Cwill not martyr
I miss Ebyou often like I miss my daughter 
GI will not martyr, I Cwill not martyr
I made Ebyou monsters, I can make you harder
GKeep your distance, keep your distance
EbTry to show respect, to show resistance
GKeep your distance, keep your distance
EbTry to show respect, to show resistance
Riff on G     Eb until end
