Selection chords: Ethan Cooper

            Dm        C       G
I was in my new house placing daydreams
                Dm     C    G
Patching up the crack along the wall
                   Dm       C        G
I pass it and lose track of what Iʼm saying
                          Dm     C   G
ʼCause thatʼs where I was when I got the call

Dm         C             G
  When the first stoneʼs thrown, theyʼre screaming
Dm       C                  G
  In the streets, thereʼs a raging riot
Dm           C        G
  When itʼs "Burn the bitch," theyʼre shrieking
Dm         C           G
  When the truth comes out, itʼs quiet

Em G                  D
   So, they killed Cassandra first ʼcause she feared the worst
Em             G        D
  And tried to tell the town
Em G                  D
   So, they filled my cell with snakes, I regret to say
Em         G        D
  Do you believe me now?

            Dm    C       G
I was in my tower weaving nightmares
                Dm     C  G
Twisting all my smiles into snarls
                        Dm       C         G
They say, "What doesnʼt kill you makes you aware"
                   Dm      C   G
What happens if it becomes who you are?

Em G                  D
   So, they killed Cassandra first ʼcause she feared the worst
Em             G        D
  And tried to tell the town
Em G               D
   So, they set my life in flames, I regret to say
Em         G        D
  Do you believe me now?

C                Em                  D
 They knew, they knew, they knew the whole time

That I was onto something
C                Em                        D
 The family, the pure greed, the Christian chorus line

They all said nothing
C                  Em
 Bloodʼs thick but nothing like a payroll
D
 Bet they never spared a prayer for my soul
C                Em                D
 You can mark my words that I said it first
                            Dm      C G
In a morning warning, no one  heard

                 Dm     C    G
I patched up the crack along the wall
                   Dm       C        G
I pass it and lose track of what Iʼm saying
                          Dm     C   G
ʼCause thatʼs where I was when I lost it all

Em G                  D
   So, they killed Cassandra first ʼcause she feared the worst
Em             G        D
  And tried to tell the town
Em G                  D
   So, they filled my cell with snakes, I regret to say
Em         G        D
  Do you believe me now?

C   Em        D
Ah, ah-ah-ah, ah

I was onto something
C  Em     D
Ah-ah-ah, ah

They all said nothing
C                  Em                D
 Bloodʼs thick but nothing like a payroll

Bet they never spared a prayer for my soul
C               Em                   D
You can mark my words that I said it first
                      C            Em
In a morning warning, no one heard
   D                C          Em    D
No one heard, not a single word  was heard

C                       Em                   D
 When the first stoneʼs thrown, theyʼre screaming

In the streets, thereʼs a raging riot
C                    Em                   D
 When itʼs "Burn the bitch," theyʼre shrieking
                               C     Em D
When the truth comes out, itʼs quiet
