[Cm]
Hand on the throttle
[Gm]
Thought I caught lightning in a bottle
[Eb] [Bb/D]
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
[Gm]

Mine play out like fools in a fablе

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]

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

Spending my last coin so someone will tell me it’ll be okay
