Mastermind

[Intro] E

E                           E4
Once upon a time, the planets and 
the fates
                     E
And all the stars aligned
                           E4
You and I ended up in the same room

At the same time

E                           E4
And the touch of a hand lit the fuse
                              E
Of a chain reaction of countermoves
                          E4
To assess the equation of you

Checkmate, I couldn't lose

C#m7                         A2
What if I told you none of it was 
accidental?
           B4
And the first night that you saw me
    E               B/D#
Nothing was gonna stop me
C#m7                      A2
I laid the groundwork and then, just
 like clockwork
       B4
The dominoes cascaded in a line
What if I told you I'm the 
     E
mastermind?
     A2
And now you're mine
           C#m7
It was all by design

   B4      A2
'Cause I'm a mastermind

E                       E4
You see, all the wisest women had to
 do it this way
E                            E4
'Cause we were born to be the pawn 
in every lover's game

E                             E4
If you fail to plan, you plan to 
fail
                                 E
Strategy sets the scene for the tale
I'm the wind in our free-flowing 
   E4
sails

And the liquor in our cocktails

C#m7                         A2
What if I told you none of it was 
accidental?
           B4
And the first night that you saw me
    E               B/D#
I knew I wanted your body?
C#m7                      A2
I laid the groundwork and then, just
 like clockwork
       B4
The dominoes cascaded in a line
What if I told you I'm the 
     E
mastermind?
     A2
And now you're mine
           C#m7
It was all my design
   B4      A2
'Cause I'm a mastermind

E
No one wanted to play with me as a 
little kid

So I've been scheming like a 
criminal ever since
A4
To make them love me and make it 
seem effortless

This is the first time I feel the 
need to confess
     G#m   A2
And I swear, I'm only cryptic and 
Machiavellian
             C#m7
'Cause I care

                       A2
So I told you none of it was 
accidental
         B4
And the first night that you saw me
    E              B/D#
Nothing was gonna stop me
C#m7                        A2
I laid the groundwork and then, saw 
a wild smirk
         B4
On your face, you knew the entire 
time
                          E
You knew that I'm a mastermind
     A2
And now you're mine
               C#m7
Yeah, all you did was smile
   B4        A2
'Cause I'm a mastermind
