Capo 3
-1
C#mBF#
I was in my new house placing daydreams
C#mBF#
Patching up the crack along the wall
C#mBF#
I pass it and lose track of what Iʼm saying
C#mBF#
ʼCause thatʼs where I was when I got the call
C#mBF#
When the first stoneʼs thrown, theyʼre screaming
C#mBF#
In the streets, thereʼs a raging riot
C#mBF#
When itʼs "Burn the bitch," theyʼre shrieking
C#mBF#
When the truth comes out, itʼs quiet
D#mF#C#
So, they killed Cassandra first ʼcause she feared the worst
D#mF#C#
And tried to tell the town
D#mF#C#
So, they filled my cell with snakes, I regret to say
D#mF#C#
Do you believe me now?
C#mBF#
I was in my tower weaving nightmares
C#mBF#
Twisting all my smiles into snarls
C#mBF#
They say, "What doesnʼt kill you makes you aware"
C#mBF#
What happens if it becomes who you are?
D#mF#C#
So, they killed Cassandra first ʼcause she feared the worst
D#mF#C#
And tried to tell the town
D#mF#C#
So, they set my life in flames, I regret to say
D#mF#C#
Do you believe me now?
BD#mC#
They knew, they knew, they knew the whole time
That I was onto something
BD#mC#
The family, the pure greed, the Christian chorus line
They all said nothing
BD#m
Bloodʼs thick but nothing like a payroll
C#
Bet they never spared a prayer for my soul
BD#mC#
You can mark my words that I said it first
C#mBF#
In a morning warning, no one heard
C#mBF#
I patched up the crack along the wall
C#mBF#
I pass it and lose track of what Iʼm saying
C#mBF#
ʼCause thatʼs where I was when I lost it all
D#mF#C#
So, they killed Cassandra first ʼcause she feared the worst
D#mF#C#
And tried to tell the town
D#mF#C#
So, they filled my cell with snakes, I regret to say
D#mF#C#
Do you believe me now?
BD#mC#
Ah, ah-ah-ah, ah
I was onto something
BD#mC#
Ah-ah-ah, ah
They all said nothing
BD#mC#
Bloodʼs thick but nothing like a payroll
Bet they never spared a prayer for my soul
BD#mC#
You can mark my words that I said it first
BD#m
In a morning warning, no one heard
C#BD#mC#
No one heard, not a single word was heard
BD#mC#
When the first stoneʼs thrown, theyʼre screaming
In the streets, thereʼs a raging riot
BD#mC#
When itʼs "Burn the bitch," theyʼre shrieking
BD#mC#
When the truth comes out, itʼs quiet
