Verse:
Cm
Hand on the throttle
Gm
Thought I caught lightning in a bottle
EbBb
Oh, but it’s gone again
Cm
And it was written
Gm
I got cursed like Eve got bitten
EbBb
Oh, was it punishment
Cm
Pad around when I get home
Gm
I guess a lesser woman would’ve lost hope
Eb
A greater woman wouldn’t beg
Bb
But I looked to the sky and said
Chorus:
FGm
Please, I’ve been on my knees
Eb
Change the prophecy, don’t want money
BbF
Just someone who wants my company
Gm
Let it once be me
Eb
Who Do I have to speak to
Bb
About if they can redo the prophecy?
Cm
Cards on thе table
Gm
Mine play out like fools in a fablе
EbBb
Oh, it was sinking in
Cm
Slow is the quicksand
Gm
Poison blood from the wound of the pricked hand
EbBb
Oh, still I dream of him
Chorus:
FGm
Please, I’ve been on my knees
Eb
Change the prophecy, don’t want money
BbF
Just someone who wants my company
Gm
Let it once be me
Eb
Who Do I have to speak to
Bb
About if they can redo the prophecy?
Bridge:
Eb
And I sound like an infant
Bb
Feeling like the very last drops of an ink pen
F
A greater woman stays cool
Eb
But I howl like a wolf at the moon
And I look unstable
Bb
Gathered with a coven ’round a sorceress’ table
F
A greater woman has faith
Eb
But even statues crumble if they’re made to wait
BbF
I’m so afraid I sealed my fate
Eb
No sign of soulmates
EbBb
I’m just a paperweight, in shades of greige
FEbCmGmEbBb
Spending my last coin so someone will tell me it’ll be okay
