Cassandra Chords by Abba

[C] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
Down in the [F] street they're [C] all singing and shouting,
_ [G] Staying alive [C] though the [G] city is dead,
Hiding [C] their [G] shame behind a [C] hollow laughter,
While you [F] are [D] crying [G] alone on your bed.
[C] Did it Cassandra that no one believed you,
But then [G] again [Am] you were lost from [G] the start,
Now [C] we must suffer [F] and [C] sell our secrets [F] again,
_ [G]
[Am] Playing smart, [Dm] [Em] aching in [C] our hearts.
Sorry [G] Cassandra, I misunderstood,
Now the land has [C] changed all in, _
Some of us [G] wanted but none of us would,
Listen to [C] words of warning, _
But on the [E] darkest of nights [Am] nobody knew [E] how to find a [Am] way. _ _
Sorry [G] Cassandra, I didn't believe,
You really [C] had the power,
_ I only [G] saw it as dreams you would be,
Some people [C] find it hard. _ _ _
_ So in the [F] morning your [C] ship will be sailing,
_ [G] Now that your father [Am] and [G] sister are gone,
There is [C] no [G] reason for you [C] to linger,
You're [F] breathing [D] deeply but still [G] moving on,
[C] You know the future is cast in the shadow,
No _ _ [G] one else [C] sees it but you [G] know your fate,
[C] Packing your bags, [F] being [C] slow and thorough,
[F] Knowing _ [G] [Am] though you're [Dm] late that [G] ship is [C] sure to wake.
Sorry [G] Cassandra, I misunderstood,
_ Now the land has [C] changed all in,
Some of us [G] wanted but none of us would,
Listen to [C] words of warning,
_ But on the [E] darkest of [Am] nights nobody knew [E] how to find a way. _
[Am] _ _ _ Sorry [G] Cassandra, I didn't believe,
You really [C] had the power,
_ I only saw [G] it as dreams you would be,
Some people [C] find it hard. _ _ _ _
I watched the ship leave in harbour at sunrise,
Sails [G] almost [Am] wet in the cool [G] morning rain,
She stood [C] on deck [F] just a tiny [C] figure,
[F] She was so pretty, _
[G] And [Am] her [Dm] strength blew [G] I [C] still knew then.
Sorry [G] Cassandra, I misunderstood,
Now the land [C] stays solid,
_ Some of us [G] wanted but none of us would,
Listen to [C] words of warning,
But on the [E] darkest of nights [Am] nobody [E] knew _ _ [Am] _ how to find a way.
Sorry [G] Cassandra, I didn't believe,
You really [C] had the power, _
I only saw [G] it as dreams you would be,
Some people [C] find it hard. _
