Intro: Cm Gm Eb Bb Verse 1: Cm Hand on the throttle Gm Thought I caught lightning in a bottle Eb Bb Oh, but it’s gone again Cm And it was written Gm I got cursed like Eve got bitten Eb Bb 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: F Gm Please, I’ve been on my knees Eb Change the prophecy, don’t want money Bb F 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 Eb Bb Oh, it was sinking in Cm Slow is the quicksand Gm Poison blood from the wound of the pricked hand Eb Bb Oh, still I dream of him Chorus: F Gm Please, I’ve been on my knees Eb Change the prophecy, don’t want money Bb F 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 Bb F I’m so afraid I sealed my fate Eb No sign of soulmates Eb Bb I’m just a paperweight, in shades of greige F Eb Cm Gm Eb Bb Spending my last coin so someone will tell me it’ll be okay Cm Gm Eb Bb Chorus: F Gm Please, I’ve been on my knees Eb Change the prophecy, don’t want money Bb F Just someone who wants my company Gm Let it once be me Eb Who do I have to speak to Bb F About if they can redo the prophecy?
