Cassandra - Mad Woman - I Did Something Bad Live chords by Taylor Swift

• Difficulty: Intermediate

Key: Ab

Verse 1:
            Ab        Eb      Bb
I was in my new house placing daydreams
            Ab        Eb   Bb
Patching up the crack along the wall
                   Ab       Eb      Bb
I pass it and lose track of what I'm saying
                          Ab     Eb Bb
'Cause that's where I was when I got the call

Pre-Chorus:
Ab          Eb            Bb
   When the first stone's thrown, they're screaming
Ab        Eb                 Bb
   In the streets, there's a raging riot
Ab           Eb        Bb
   When it's "Burn the bitch," they're shrieking
Ab          Eb          Bb
   When the truth comes out, it's quiet

Chorus:
Ab          Eb        Bb
   So, they killed Cassandra first 'cause she feared the worst
Ab              Eb       Bb
   And tried to tell the town
Ab          Eb        Bb
   So, they filled my cell with snakes, I regret to say
Ab          Eb       Bb
   Do you believe me now?
Ab          Eb       Bb
   Do you believe me now?

Bb

Transition:
Ab Eb           Bb
   What did you think I'd say to that?
Ab        Eb       Bb
   Does a scorpion sting when fighting back?
Ab     Eb      Bb                  Ab     Eb   Bb
  They strike
 to kill and you know I will
Ab      Eb     Bb
    You know I will

Ab      Eb     Bb

Ab  Eb          Bb                 Ab
    What do you sing on your drive home?
       Eb     Bb                     Ab
Do you see my face in the neighbor's lawn?
    Eb        Bb
Does she smile?
            Ab           Eb  Bb
Or does she mouth, "Fuck you forever"?

Ab  Eb  Bb

Pre-Chorus:
Ab               Eb               Cm
  Every time you call me crazy, I get more crazy
Bb
What about that?
Ab             Eb                  Cm             Bb
  And when you say I seem angry, I get more angry

Chorus:
            Ab                 Cm
And there's nothing like a mad woman
       Bb
What a shame she went mad
Ab                 Cm
No one likes a mad woman
    Bb
You made her like that
           Ab                      Cm
And you'll poke that bear 'til her claws come out
       Bb
And you find something to wrap your noose around
Ab          Cm              Bb
And there's nothing like a mad woman

Ab  Eb  Bb

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                 Cm                   Bb
   You can mark my words that I said it first
                               Ab
In the morning warning, no one heard

Transition:
                       Cm
So I'm taking my time, taking my time
                                Ab
'Cause you took everything from me
                   Cm
Watching you climb, watching you climb
                 Ab
Over people like me
                         Cm
The master of spin has a couple side flings
                  Ab
Good wives always know
Eb                            Cm
She should be mad, should be scathing like me, but

Bb               Ab        Eb
No one likes a maaaad         woman
What a shame she went mad
Eb
You made her like that
Ab
Bb
What a shame she went mad

Ab Eb Bb
