C#m G#m E B

Verse:
C#m
 Hand on the throttle
G#m
 Thought I caught lightning in a bottle
 E                 B
 Oh, but it’s gone again
C#m
 And it was written
G#m
 I got cursed like Eve got bitten
 E               B
 Oh, was it punishment
C#m
 Pad around when I get home
G#m
 I guess a lesser woman would’ve lost hope
E
 A greater woman wouldn’t beg
B
 But I looked to the sky and said

Chorus:
 F#                       G#m
 Please, I’ve been on my knees
                  E
 Change the prophecy, don’t want money
 B                           F#
 Just someone who wants my company
                G#m
 Let it once be me
                  E
 Who Do I have to speak to
                   B
 About if they can redo the prophecy?

C#m
 Cards on thе table
G#m
 Mine play out like fools in a fablе
 E                 B
 Oh, it was sinking in
C#m
 Slow is the quicksand
G#m
 Poison blood from the wound of the pricked hand
E                    B
 Oh, still I dream of him

Chorus:
 F#                       G#m
 Please, I’ve been on my knees
                  E
 Change the prophecy, don’t want money
 B                           F#
 Just someone who wants my company
                G#m
 Let it once be me
                  E
 Who Do I have to speak to
                   B
 About if they can redo the prophecy?

Bridge:
E
 And I sound like an infant
B
 Feeling like the very last drops of an ink pen
F#
 A greater woman stays cool
E
 But I howl like a wolf at the moon

 And I look unstable
B
 Gathered with a coven ’round a sorceress’ table
F#
 A greater woman has faith
E
 But even statues crumble if they’re made to wait
     B          F#
 I’m so afraid I sealed my fate
            E
 No sign of soulmates
            E              B
 I’m just a paperweight, in shades of greige
 F#                                     E                C#m  G#m  E  B
 Spending my last coin so someone will tell me it’ll be okay

C#m G#m E B

Chorus:
 F#                       G#m
 Please, I’ve been on my knees
                  E
 Change the prophecy, don’t want money
 B                           F#
 Just someone who wants my company
                G#m
 Let it once be me
                  E
 Who Do I have to speak to
                   B                F#
 About if they can redo the prophecy?
G#m                E
 Who Do I have to speak to
B                 F#
 To change the prophecy?

Outro:
F#
 Hand on the throttle
G#m
 Thought I caught lightning in a bottle
 E            B
 Oh, but it’s gone again
F#
 Pad around when I get home
G#m
 I guess a lesser woman would’ve lost hope
E
 A greater woman wouldn’t beg
 B
 But I looked to the sky and said (Please)
