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