Chords for The Ruse - The Villains Lair ( Ep. 6 ) Princess Crossover Episode

[F#] Previously on the [B] Villains Ladder _ _
[A#] I discovered a way to control [B] time [C#] [B] itself.
A power so [C] strong, [Bm] it can alter the events of the [F#] past, [B] the present, and the future.
[A#] What is [D] it?
Any of y'all [F#] ever heard of the [B] Sundial of Cronus?
[Bm] The fabled sundial of the ancient god [F#] of [B] time?
The sundial gives the [Bm] owner powers to control time itself.
[C#m] If what you say [B] is true, where is it?
[A#] The Princess [Bm] Academy.
You mean [F#] our [B] adversaries have this power?
_ [A#] _
Hades [G#] wielded this power for [F#] a [B] time, but when he was defeated [D] it was thought to be [F#] lost.
But there was one [B] person who knew of its location.
[D] _ Naggarai.
Zeus [F] entrusted the sundial to them, and ordered it sent to the Princess Academy to be [F#] kept.
_ [B] Retrieving such an item from a palace [Bm] guarded by magic will require [Am] skill, [B] _ cunning, [F#] and [Bm] expertise.
_ [F#] _ _
[B] All qualifications I [Bm] readily possess.
Get that sundial, [F#] and we can control [B] time with ease.
I'll [A#] do it.
[Bm] I'm something of an expert [F#] in disguises.
[B] I'll get into that [Bm] school and befriend this Meg.
And then [F#] what?
[B] _
Ask [G] nicely?
Oh [F#] no, she's going to give it to me.
[B] And I've always said if you want something done [D] right, [F] do it yourself.
[N] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [Am] _
_ [Dm] _ _ _ [A#] _ _ _ [F] _
We need [C] to talk about Princess Merida's cleanliness.
[F] Or lack [A#] thereof.
_ [F] _ _ _ [Cm]
[F] I know what you mean.
[Gm] But remember, [G] not all princesses are alike.
And here at [Gm] the Academy, we celebrate princesses of [Dm]
[Cm] all kinds.
_ I [G] agree.
[D] But _ [Gm] your room isn't next to hers, and there are all sorts of [Cm] smells and [D] noises coming from [Gm] in there.
Some [D] nights I wish I could find a spinning wheel just so [Gm] I could sleep. Oh dear. _
[D] That is bad.
_ _ _ [Gm]
I have an idea!
Oh, I think I know [N] how we can_
_ _ _ [D] Oh _ _ my [D#] goodness!
_ _ [Dm] Your Majesties.
I have been sent here from Mount [D] Olympus by Zeus himself. _
[Dm] That sounds awfully important.
[C#] Indeed.
Forgive me, but [Dm] who are you?
I am Thymis, [D] daughter of Uranus and Gaia.
I am [Dm] order, law, [G#m] and fairness. _
Some even [Cm] say I am the fairest of them [D] all.
What a coincidence!
People say that about me, too.
_ [Dm] _ Won't you sit down?
My [D#m] daughters the Fates have warned me [Dm] that you and this entire world are in great danger.
[D] Danger?
Should I call for Philip?
[Dm] He's quite good with a sword, you know.
[C#] Swords will do you no good, I'm afraid.
[Dm] Only I and the gods of Olympus can avert this danger.
Well, we'll [C] certainly do [Dm] anything we can to help.
_ Splendid.
_ [D#m] There is an ancient artifact housed in this [Dm] academy.
The Fates have seen that a great evil wishes to claim it and use its powers to destroy you all.
I have [C#] been sent by Zeus to collect [Dm] it.
There on Mount Olympus it can be safely guarded.
Here at the academy it is [A] too exposed.
[Dm] What is this artifact?
I dare not say [D#] here.
Evil has eyes [Dm] everywhere. _
The fewer who know, the less in danger you are.
I must speak with your professor of ancient history.
_ Meg?
[C#]
Yes.
She has been [Dm] entrusted with it and has kept it safe in the Museum of Ancient History.
_ Quickly, we must summon [D#] Meg.
[F] Snow, [Gm] would you_
[F] _ _ [Am] _ _
_ [Dm] _ _ _ [A#] _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ [A#m] _ _ _ [F] _ Oh, [Cm] Sizzy, [A#] she's here to help.
[F] _ [Gm] _ [D] _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ [Gm] Oh, [F] [Gm] she'll just be [F] a minute. _
[Cm] _ Now [D#] go and tell Meg to come here [D] right away.
_ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ [D] She'll be on her way shortly.
Would you [D#] care for anything while we wait?
[Dm] Would you like anything to eat?
No. _
Thank you.
[D] _ _ _ _ Would you [Dm] like anything to eat?
Some gooseberry pie?
[C#] I've always had a [Dm] fondness for_ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ All [E] right. _
Which [Dm] one of you royal hineys sent me the tweet? _ _
_ _ _ [D#] It's Indus.
Well, it's [Dm] an honor to meet you, Themis.
Thank you, child.
Now we must discuss the [D] danger I've had.
Is it safe to [Dm] speak here?
Sure.
_ [C#] Trust me, the least popular place at [Dm] something called the Princess Academy is the Museum of Ancient [D] History.
Now, if it were the Museum of Ballgowns and Sparkly Things, you may need a reservation three months in advance.
You're [D#] like the second person to come here this week.
[Dm] What about Magical Interlopers?
Oh, yeah.
The fairies have this [D] entire place enchanted out.
You'd have to be a pretty [Dm] crafty witch to get in here.
_ [A#m]
This is where we keep all the good stuff.
[Dm] Remember, you break it, you got it.
_ _ [D] _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _ _
[D#m] _ _ So, [Dm] what exactly are you looking for?
The secrecy of this mission is paramount.
The gods work in _ mysterious [C#] ways, you know.
Tell me about it.
[Dm] I know firsthand. _ _ _
_ [D] Rhaeis.
Hades.
You know the story.
I've seen it.
I see [D#m] all.
And when Hades was lost [Dm] in the River Styx, the mighty Zeus entrusted you with all manner of Hades' [D] possessions, one of [Dm] them being the very thing I'm here for.
[A#m] Yeah, who knew Hades was such a [Dm] hoarder?
Indeed. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ You know, it'd be a lot easier if you just tell me what you're looking [D#] for. _
Come on, you can trust [Dm] me.
I'm jacked up as Zeus' son for Hera's sake.
Perhaps [D] you're right.
_ _ _ [Dm]
I'm looking for an artifact that [C#] contains the essence of my mad titan brother, [Dm] Cronos.
Wait a minute.
You mean the sundial?
[C#] Yes, the sundial of Cronos.
It [Dm] must be protected.
For he, or she, who claims it controls the sundial can command all of time itself.
[D#] The prophecy!
You've heard it!
[Dm] Yeah, heard all about it the other day when some fish girl from Atlantica came for it.
[D] She's gonna be safe from harm below the ocean [Dm] with Triton.
Atlantica?
What [C#] are you saying?
It's what I've [Dm] been trying to tell you.
_ _ The sundial!
[D] Where is it?
The [E] envoy from Atlantica was here yesterday and took it for [D] safekeeping.
Guess they didn't [Dm] see that coming. _
_ [G#m] _ No!
_ _ [Cm] _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] Was it something I said?
_ _ _ _ _ [N] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bm] No. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ [B] _
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F#] _ [B] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _
_ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ [N] _ _
