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