Guitar chords with lyrics

🎸 Intro:

Cm




🎸 Verse 1:
   Cm
I used to see the future and now I see nothin'
They cut out my eyes and sent me home packing
    F                           Fm
To pace around the kitchen for scraps of inspiration
Cm
Crying like Cassandra
I
G
Used to tell the future, but they cut out my tongue
     F                         Fm
And left me doing laundry to thinkin' what I've done
           Cm Am  G        F
It wasn't me, it was the song

🎸 Verse 2:
Cm
I used to move into the future, bring it all back
Let it bleed through my fingers, a treasure in my hands
Not ?: when there's no one about
'Cause they put crosses on the doors to try and keep me out
       Cm                Bb
With gard ns of the grove
                                Am   G#
And I run in the middl? of the road (Ooh)

🎸 Chorus:
               Cm                Eb
Well, can you see me? I cannot see you
              G#
Everything I thought I knew has fallen out of view
           Eb             G#
In this blindness I'm condemned to
               Cm                Eb
Well, can you hear me? I cannot hear you
               G#
Every song I thought I knew
I've been deafened to
             Eb              G     Cm
And there's no one left to sing to

🎸 Verse 3:
         Cm
All the gods have been domesticated
And Heaven is now overrated
And the churches, they all closed their doors
But you can take your complaints straight to the Lord
Cm
I try to still look where they wander on the work
              Bb
As the roses bloom
                     Am                 G#  G
And the riot plants, they play me and you

🎸 Chorus:
               Cm                Eb
Well, can you see me? I cannot see you
              G#
Everything I thought I knew has fallen out of view
           Eb             G#
In this blindness I'm condemned to
               Cm                Eb
Well, can you hear me? I cannot hear you
               G#
Every song I thought I knew
I've been deafened to
             Eb              G     Cm
And there's no one left to sing to

🎸 Bridge:
Cm
Ooh
Bb
Ooh
Am   G#  G
Ooh, oh
Cm
Ooh, ooh, ooh (Take me back)
                          Bb
Ooh, ooh, ooh (Oh, the drunken gods oversee me)
                  Am             G#               G
Ooh, ooh, ooh (I must be their favourite daughter)

🎸 Chorus:
               Cm                Eb
Well, can you see me? I cannot see you
              G#
Everything I thought I knew has fallen out of view
             Cm                     Eb
And if I run fast and back, could I break apart
            G#                                   Eb   G
As empires tumble and cathedrals flatten in my heart?
