Taylor Swift – The Prophecy Chords on Piano & Ukulele

Cm Gm Eb Bb/D

[Verse 1]
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
 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
 Please, I’ve been
       Gm
on my knees
                  Eb
 Change the prophecy,
 don’t want money
 Bb/D
 Just someone who
               F
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?

 Mine play out like

[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
 I’m just a paperweight,
    Bb
 in shades of greige
 F
 Spending my last coin
                 Eb
so someone will tell me
            Cm  Gm  Eb  Bb/D
it’ll be okay
Cm  Gm  Eb  Bb/D

[Chorus]
 F
 Please, I’ve been
       Gm
on my knees
                  Eb
 Change the prophecy,
 don’t want money
 Bb/D
 Just someone who
               F
wants my company
                Gm
 Let it once be me
                  Eb
 Who do I have to speak to
                   Bb/D
 About if they can redo
                F
the prophecy?
Gm                Eb
 Who do I have to speak to
Bb/D                 F
 To change the prophecy?

[Outro]
F
 Hand on the throttle
Gm
 Thought I caught lightning
in a bottle
 Eb            Bb/D
 Oh, but it’s gone again
F
 Pad around when
 I get home
Gm
 I guess a lesser woman
would’ve lost hope
Eb
 A greater woman
wouldn’t beg
 B/D
 But I looked to the
 sky and said (Please)
