I've written out just the chord shapes in the usual format: the six numbers
are the fret numbers, with the lowest string position (C) on the left.
As usual, Joni uses the open strings during some chord changes to blend one
chord smoothly into the next - I've written out the most obvious open
string chords.

He said "You think you're a lady but I know you're a woman

The chords are the same for all verses/choruses, except for the last
chorus (see below).
Verse 2:
--------
About a month or so later he said "Why can't you be happy
You make me feel helpless when you get this way"
I said "I'm up to my neck in alligators, jaws gnashing at me
Each one trying to pull a piece away"
Darling, you can't slay these beasts of prey
Some bad dreams even love can't erase
But in France they say
Everyday
Chorus:
-------
Love puts on a new face
Love has many faces
Verse 3:
--------
He said "I wish you were with me here, the leaves are electric
They burn on the river bank, countless heatless flames"
I said "Send me some pictures then and I'll paint pyrotechnic
Explosions of your autumn till we meet again
I miss your touch and your lips so much
I long for our next embrace"
But in France they say
Everyday
Chorus:
-------
0 12 12 12 12 0 xx0000 998000

Love puts on a new face
