Emmy The Great – Cassandra chords

A       DCassandra, keep it down
A    DI don't think they can hear you now
A      DDon't think they heard you first time 'round
A   DNo they can't hear you, no Cassandra,

A    DCassandra, it won't make sense
A     Enot if you think and think again
A       DBut still they do say, life is forgiving
A        E and ends up partnered with beginnings

A D F#m E


A  DAnd daily, you saw it come
A  Eand you gave warning, but couldn't run
A     Dand so you watched until it was broken
A     Eand knew the foresight delays no motion
A  DI know it's awful, I know it's bruising,
F#m    EI know you can't see past the conclusion
A      Dbut still the world turns upon its axis
F#m  Eand we make circles so we can match it


A  D
F#m EAnd read our lines though we've had no practice

A D F#m E

A       DCassandra, keep it down
A    DI don't think they can hear you now
A      DDon't think they heard you first time 'round
A   DNo they can't hear you, there's no answer

A     DAnd maybe there's something great
F#m     Ethat gives us meaning, if we wait
A  Dbut still I'm human, I'm broken-hearted
A     DI see your sundress and your sunglasses
A       DI hear your question, and how you ask it
F#m EWhat use is love if it always passes?
A D
F#m EWhat use is love if it always passes?

A D F#m E

A DAnd though they do say, Life is forgiving,
F#m Ewhat use is life to those who aren't living?
A DAnd though they do say, Life is forgiving,
F#m E Awhat use is life to those who aren’t living?
