Cassandra chords and lyrics - FLORENCE + THE MACHINE

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[C]I used to see the future
And now I see nothing
They cut out my eyes
And sent me home packing
[F]To pace around the kitchen
for scraps of inspiration
[C]Crying like Cassandra
[G]I used to tell the future
But they cut out my tongue
And left [F]me doing laundry
To think [Fm]on what I've done
It wasn't [C]me, [G]it [Am]was t[G]he son[F]g

[Verse 2]
[F]
[C]I u[Cm]sed to move into the future
Bring it all back,
let it bleed through my fingers
A treasure in my hands
Now I creep out,
when there's no one about
'Cause they put crosses on the
doors to try and keep me out
The garden's [Bb]overgrown
And I run in the middle of the
road
[Adim][Am][Ab]

[Verse 3]
[G]
Well, can you [Cm]see me?
I cannot [Eb]see you
Everything I thought [Ab]I knew
Has fallen out of view
In this [Eb]blindness I'm [G]condemned to
Well, can you [Cm]hear me?
I cannot [Eb]hear you
Every song I thought [Ab]I knew
I've been deafened to
And there's [Eb]no one left
to sing [G]to
[Cm][C][Cm]

[Verse 4]
All the gods have been domesticated
And heaven is now overrated
And the churches,
they all closed their doors
You can take your complaints
straight to the Lord
I try to still look with a wonder
on the world
As the roses [Bb]bloom
And the riot vans [Eb]still[Adim]
plainly in view
[Ab]

[Verse 5]
[Cm]
Well, can you [G]see [Cm]me?
I cannot [Eb]see you
Everything I thought [Ab]I knew
Has fallen out of view
In this [Eb]blindness I'm [G]condemned to
Well, can you [Cm]hear me?
I cannot [Eb]hear you
Every song I thought [Ab]I knew
I've been deafened to
And there's [Eb]no one left
to sing [Baug]to[G][Cm]

[Verse 6]
Ooh, [Bb]ooh, [Adim]ooh, oh[Ab][G]
[Cm]Ooh, ooh, ooh (take me
back)
Ooh, ooh, ooh (o[Bb]h, drunken gods of
slaughter)
Ooh, ooh, ooh (you know [F]I've al[Adim]ways been
your fa[F]vorite [Ab]daug[Fm]hter)[G]

[Verse 7]
Well, can you [Cm]see me?
I cannot [Eb]see you
Everything I thought [Ab]I knew
Has fallen [Eb]out of [Baug]view
[G]And if I run fas[Cm]t enough
Could I [Eb]break apart?
As empires [Ab]crumble and cathedrals flatten
In my [Eb]heart
[G]
