Cassandra

            Fm         Eb   
I was in my new house placing 
  Bb
daydreams
                Fm      Eb      Bb
Patching up the crack along the wall
                   Fm       Eb    
I pass it and lose track of what 
   Bb
I'm saying
                          Fm      
'Cause that's where I was when I 
Eb Bb
got the call

Fm         Eb             Bb
  When the first stone's thrown, 
there's screaming
Fm       Eb                 Bb
  In the streets, there's a raging 
riot
Fm           Eb       Bb
  When it's: Burn the bitch!, 
they're shrieking
Fm         Eb          Bb
  When the truth comes out, it's 
quiet

Gm  Bb                F
    So they killed Cassandra first

'Cause she feared the worst
Gm             Bb       F
  And tried to tell the town
Gm  Bb                F
    So they filled my cell with 
snakes

I regret to say
Gm          Bb       F
   Do you believe me now?

            Fm    Eb      Bb
I was in my tower weaving nightmares
                Fm     Eb   Bb
Twisting all my smiles into snarls
                      Fm       Eb 
They say what doesn't kill you 
       Bb
makes you aware
                   Fm      Eb      
What happens if it becomes who you 
Bb
are?

Gm             Bb       F
  And tried to tell the town
Gm  Bb                F
    So they set my life in flames

I regret to say
Gm          Bb       F
   Do you believe me now?

Eb                 Gm            
   They knew, they knew, they 
      F
knew the whole time

That I was onto something
Eb                 Gm            
   The family, the pure greed, 
            F
the Christian chorus line

They all said nothing
Eb                   Gm
  Blood's thick, but nothing like a 
payroll
F
Bet they never spared a prayer for 
my soul
Eb                Gm             
  You can mark my words that I 
   F
said it first
                            Fm     
In a morning warning, no one  heard
Eb  Bb

'Cause that's where I was when I

lost it all

Eb  Gm        F
Ah, ah-ah-ah, ah

I was onto something
Eb Gm     F
Ah-ah-ah, ah

They all said nothing

In a morning warning, no one heard
   F                Eb         Gm
No one heard, not a single word  
    F
was heard

Eb                        Gm     
   When the first stone's thrown,

                               Eb  
When the truth comes out, it's 
  Gm
quiet
     F
It's so quiet
