The ProphecyCifra

F 
  Hand on the throttle 
Eb 
Thought I caught lightning in a bottle 
Bb                Bb 
Oh, but it's gone again 
F 
  And it was written 
Eb 
I got cursed like Eve got bitten 
Bb               Bb 
Oh, was it punishment 
F                           Eb 
  Pad around when I get home 
                                         Bb 
I guess a lesser woman would've lost hope 

A greater woman wouldn't beg 
Bb 
But I looked to the sky and said 

F 
Please 
                Eb 
I've been on my knees 
           Bb 
Change the prophecy 

Don't want money 
Bb                             F 
Just someone who wants my company 
               Eb 
Let it once be me 
                 Bb 
Who do I have to speak to? 
                  Bb 
About if they can redo 

The prophecy? 

F 
  Cards on thе table 
Eb 
Mine play out like fools in a fablе 
Bb                  Bb 
Oh, it was sinking in 
F 
  Slow is the quicksand 
Eb 
Poison blood from the wound of the pricked hand 
Bb                   Bb 
Oh, still I dream of him 

F 
Please 
                Eb 
I've been on my knees 
                 Bb 
Change the prophecy 

Don't want money 
Bb                             F

The prophecy? 

Cm 
  And I sound like an infant 
Gm 
Feelin' like the very last drops of an ink pen 
Bb 
  A greater woman stays cool 
F 
  But I howl like a wolf at the Moon 
Cm 
  And I look unstable 
Gm 
Gathered with a coven 'round a sorceress' table 
Bb 
  A greater woman has faith 
    F                               Cm 
But even statues crumble if they're made to wait 
    Gm          Bb 
I'm so afraid I sealed my fate 
           F 
No sign of soulmates 
           Cm 
I'm just a paperweight 
   Gm 
In shades of greige 
Bb                                    F 
Spendin' my last coin so someone will tell me 
         Cm   Gm 
It'll be okay 
Bb   F 
Ooh, Ooh 
Cm  Gm  Bb 
Ooh,    Ooh 

F 
Please 
                Eb 
I've been on my knees 
                 Bb 
Change the prophecy 

Don't want money

Who do I have to speak to? 
                  Bb 
About if they can redo 
          Cm  Gm 
The prophecy? 
                 Bb 
Who do I have to speak to 
F 
  To change the prophecy?
