C* - C majorC - FF - C majorC

Verse 1:

C*        C majorC
Kate wasn't in to moderation
FF         C majorC
That's what led to her frustration
     C*     C majorC       FF    C majorC
With the state of her crumbling heart
      C*         C majorC
She'd say "I'm not a girl for temperance,
     FF        C majorC
Though I know it's at my heart's expense
   C*       C majorC         FF    C majorC
But a downward spiral has to have a rock bottom.


C* - C majorC - FF - C majorC 2x (4 downstrokes per chord)


Verse 2:

   C*          C majorC
She'd paint the walls with blue and green
FF              C majorC
Singing 'bout sing about her lovers and dreams and
C*     C majorC       FF    C majorC
Explain her hopeless desperation
C*          C majorC
Take off your shoes unravel your blues
C*          C majorC
This place is full of beggars and choosers
    C*         C majorC     FF    C majorC
But the consequence of her liberty is bad

Chorus:

    G+G           C majorC   FF
But my heart wants to go one way my mind don't agree
   G+G        C majorC     FF
Cause they, they have fallen out recently


C* - C majorC - FF - C majorC 2x


Verse 3:

C*    C majorC
"Know thy self" she said
    FF           C majorC
as she guarded me 'round the land of the dead
   C*     C majorC          FF      C majorC
Introducing her friend stuck in the same mess
C*            C majorC
Ships might be built for sailing, my love
  FF        C majorC
and easels made for painting
  C*      C majorC            FF       C majorC
But you ain't no sailor and I'll never be camera shy


Chorus:

G+G            C majorC   FF
My heart wants to go one way my mind don't agree
G+G              C majorC  FF
Cause they, they have fallen out recently
G+G       Gsus4Gsus4 G+G
Well she said
C majorC    G+G   FF     C majorC   G+G   FF
"will I praise again? Oh will I praise again?"


G+G - FF
G+G - C majorC - FF

Chorus:

     G+G           C majorC   FF
Cause my heart wants to go one way my mind don't agree
  G+G        C majorC     FF
And they, they have fallen out recently
G+G       Gsus4Gsus4 G+G
And she said,

  C majorC   G+G   FF
"Oh will I praise again?"
  C majorC   G+G   FF
"Oh will I praise again?"
 C majorC       FF   C majorC
"Will I, will I sing again?"
 C majorC    G+G   FF
