 Hand on the throttle

 Thought I caught lightning in a bottle

 Oh, but it’s gone again

Cm
 And it was written

Gm
 I got cursed like Eve got bitten

 Eb               Bb/D
 Oh, was it punishment

Cm
 Pad around when I get home

 I guess a lesser woman would’ve lost hope

Eb
 A greater woman wouldn’t beg

Bb/D
 But I looked to the sky and said
[Chorus]
 F                       Gm
 Please, I’ve been on my knees

                  Eb
 Change the prophecy, don’t want money

 Bb/D                           F
 Just someone who wants my company

                Gm
 Let it once be me

                  Eb
 Who do I have to speak to

                   Bb/D
 About if they can redo the prophecy?

[Bridge]
Eb
 And I sound like an infant

Bb
 Feeling like the very last drops of an ink pen

F
 A greater woman stays cool

Eb
 But I howl like a wolf at the moon
And I look unstable
Bb
 Gathered with a coven ’round a sorceress’ table

F
 A greater woman has faith

Eb
 But even statues crumble if they’re made to wait

     Bb          F
 I’m so afraid I sealed my fate

            Eb
 No sign of soulmates

            Eb              Bb
 I’m just a paperweight, in shades of greige

 F                                     Eb                Cm  Gm  Eb  Bb/D
 Spending my last coin so someone will tell me it’ll be okay

                  Eb
 Change the prophecy, don’t want money

 Bb/D                           F
 Just someone who wants my company

                Gm
 Let it once be me

                  Eb
 Who do I have to speak to

                   Bb/D                F
 About if they can redo the prophecy?

Gm                Eb
 Who do I have to speak to

Bb/D                 F
 To change the prophecy?
