These are the chords for Cassandra by Florence + The Machine on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard
[Verse 1]
B
I used to see the future
and now I see nothin'
B
They cut out my eyes and
sent me home packin'
E
To pace around the kitchen
Em
for scraps of inspiration
B
Cryin' like Cassandra, I
F#
Used to tell the future,
but they cut out my tongue
E
And left me doin' laundry
Em
to thinkin' what I've done
B C#m G#m
It wasn't me
F# E
It was the song
[Verse 2]
B5
I used to move into the future,
bring it all back
B5
Let it bleed through my fingers,
a treasure in my hands
B5
Now I creep out when
there's no one about
B5
'Cause they put crosses on
the doors to try and keep me out
Bm A
With gardеns of the grove
And I run in the middlе
E/G# G
f the road (Ooh)

[Chorus]
F#7 Bm
Well, can you see me?
D
I cannot see you
G
Everything I thought I
knew has fallen out of view
D F#7
In this blindness I'm condemned to
Bm
Well, can you hear me?
D
I cannot hear you
G
Every song I thought I knew,
I've been deafened to
D
And there's no one
F#7 Bm
left to sing to
[Verse 3]
Bm
All the gods have been domesticated
Bm
And Heaven is now overrated
Bm
And the churches,
they all closed their doors
Bm
Well, you can take your
complaints straight to the Lord
I try to still look where
Bm
they wander on the work
A
As the roses bloom
And the riot plants,
E/G# G
they're plainly in view

Could I break apart

As empires tumble and cathedrals
D F#7
flatten in my heart?
