[Intro]
Am Em C G/B
 
[Verse 1]
Am
 Hand on the throttle
Em
 Thought I caught lightning in a bottle
 C                 G/B
 Oh, but it’s gone again
Am
 And it was written
Em
 I got cursed like Eve got bitten
 C               G/B
 Oh, was it punishment
Am
 Pad around when I get home
Em
 I guess a lesser woman would’ve lost hope
C
 A greater woman wouldn’t beg
G/B
 But I looked to the sky and said
 
 
[Chorus]
 D                       Em
 Please, I’ve been on my knees
                  C
 Change the prophecy, don’t want money
 G/B                           D
 Just someone who wants my company
                Em
 Let it once be me
                  C
 Who do I have to speak to
                   G/B
 About if they can redo the prophecy?
 
 
[Verse]
Am
 Cards on thе table
Em
 Mine play out like fools in a fablе
 C                 G/B
 Oh, it was sinking in
Am
 Slow is the quicksand
Em
 Poison blood from the wound 

 Of the pricked hand
C                    G/B
 Oh, still I dream of him
 
 
[Chorus]
 D                       Em
 Please, I’ve been on my knees
                  C
 Change the prophecy, don’t want money
 G/B                           D
 Just someone who wants my company
                Em
 Let it once be me
                  C
 Who do I have to speak to
                   G/B
 About if they can redo the prophecy?
 
 
[Bridge]
C
 And I sound like an infant
G
 Feeling like the very 

 Last drops of an ink pen
D
 A greater woman stays cool
C
 But I howl like a wolf at the moon
 
 And I look unstable
G
 Gathered with a coven 

 ’round a sorceress’ table
D
 A greater woman has faith
C
 But even statues crumble 

 If they’re made to wait
     G          D
 I’m so afraid I sealed my fate
            C
 No sign of soulmates
            C              G
 I’m just a paperweight, in shades of greige
 D                                     
 Spending my last coin so someone will 
 C                Am  Em C G/B
 tell me it’ll be okay

 Am  Em  C  G/B
 
 
[Chorus]
 D                       Em
 Please, I’ve been on my knees
                  C
 Change the prophecy, don’t want money
 G/B                           D
 Just someone who wants my company
                Em
 Let it once be me
                  C
 Who do I have to speak to
                   G/B                D
 About if they can redo the prophecy?
Em                C
 Who do I have to speak to
G/B                 D
 To change the prophecy?
 
 
[Outro]
D
 Hand on the throttle
Em
 Thought I caught lightning in a bottle
 C            G/B
 Oh, but it’s gone again
D
 Pad around when I get home
Em
 I guess a lesser woman would’ve lost hope
C
 A greater woman wouldn’t beg
 G#/B                              N.C.
 But I looked to the sky and said (Please)
