[Verse 1]
Cm Eb Bb
I was in my new house placing daydreams
Cm Eb Bb
Patching up the crack along the wall
Cm Eb Bb
I pass it and lose track of what I'm saying
Cm Eb Bb
'Cause that's where I was when I got the call
[Pre-Chorus]
Cm Eb Bb
When the first stone's thrown, they're screaming
Cm Eb Bb
In the streets, there's a raging riot
Cm Eb Bb
When it's "Burn the bitch," they're shrieking
Cm Eb Bb
When the truth comes out, it's quiet
[Chorus]
Gm Bb F
So, they killed Cassandra first 'cause she feared the worst
Gm Bb F
And tried to tell the town
Gm Bb F
So, they filled my cell with snakes, I regret to say
Gm Bb F
Do you believe me now?
[Verse 2]
Cm Eb Bb
I was in my tower weaving nightmares
Cm Eb Bb
Twisting all my smiles into snarls
Cm Eb Bb
They say, "What doesn't kill you makes you aware"
Cm Eb Bb
What happens if it becomes who you are?
[Chorus]
Gm Bb F
So, they killed Cassandra first 'cause she feared the worst
Gm Bb F
And tried to tell the town
Gm Bb F
So, they set my life in flames, I regret to say
Gm Bb F
Do you believe me now?
[Bridge]
Ab Cm Bb
They knew, they knew, they knew the whole time
That I was onto something
Ab Cm Bb
The family, the pure greed, the Christian chorus line
They all said nothing
Ab Cm Bb
Blood's thick but nothing like a payroll
Bet they never spared a prayer for my soul
Ab C Bb
You can mark my words that I said it first
In the morning warning, no one heard
Cm Eb Bb
[Verse 3]
Cm Eb Bb
I patched up the crack along the wall
Cm Eb Bb
I pass it and lose track of what I'm saying
Cm Eb Bb
'Cause that's where I was when I lost it all
[Chorus]
Gm Bb F
So, they killed Cassandra first 'cause she feared the worst
Gm Bb F
And tried to tell the town

So, they set my life in flames, I regret to say

Do you believe me now?
[Bridge]

Ah, ah-ah-ah, ah
I was onto something
Ab Cm Bb
Ah-ah-ah, ah
They all said nothing
Ab Cm Bb
Blood's thick but nothing like a payroll
Bet they never spared a prayer for my soul
Ab C Bb
You can mark my words that I said it first
Ab
In the morning warning, no one heard
Cm Bb Ab Cm Bb
No one heard, not a single word - - was heard

It's so quiet
