(A minor) Predestination,
Verse 1
(A minor)
not a thing (B minor) that you'd plan (E minor)
(A minor) Misunderstanding,
or a (B minor) line in the sand (E minor)
Thunder (A minor) & lightning,
did (B minor) God have a hand (E minor)
(A minor) Wasn't it frightening, (B minor) was n't it sad
(G major) Would it have mattered,
it the timing (B major) was bad
Something (A minor) surprising, or nothing (B minor) so (E minor) sad
(C major) A (A minor) night at the Wiskey, or
(B minor) was I just mad (E minor) (C major)

Verse 2
(C sharp minor) darkness,
(G sharp minor) time was never on (C sharp minor) your side
(F sharp minor) That's the rock of ages, (B major)
and (E major) I could tell you why (C sharp major)
I'd (F sharp major) talk about the day (D sharp major) time,
and (G sharp major) tell you 'bout the night (A major)
You'll (F sharp minor) have to live in dark (D sharp major) ness
to (E major) get some piece of mind (C sharp major)
Don't (A major) try to make the dark (Bsus4) ness (B major) bright, (E major)
(C sharp minor) (A major) night will always (Bsus4) dim (B major) the (C sharp minor) light
(A major) (F sharp minor)
Verse 3
(B major)
Something (A minor) is a happening,
(B minor) nothing ain't right (E minor)
(A minor) I've been a waiting,
a (B minor) waiting all night (E minor)
(A minor) Is it on purpose,
who (B minor) know if you might (E minor)
I'm (A minor) biting my nails, right (B minor) through to the bone
I (G major) seem to be dripping my
(E minor) blood on (Edim) the phone (F sharpdim)
(E major) It was always
Verse 4

(A major) (F sharp minor)
Verse 5
(B major)
If (E major) I could tell you I (A major) might as well
If (B major) it was heard, the (E major) honest word
But (C sharp minor) you should know,
like (C major) no one knows
The words, (F sharp major) just can't be heard (B major)
Now (A minor) it don't matter,
Verse 6
(A minor)
it's (B minor) too late to (E minor) care
It's (A minor) something you'd saviour,
leave (B minor) up in the (E minor) air
You (A minor) can 't criticise it,
it (B minor) wouldn't be fair (E minor)
You (A minor) couldn't do that,
you'd (B minor) be such a bore
It's (G major) only the thinking,
that (C sharpdim) altered (Edim) the score (F sharpdim)
(E major) It was always

and (G sharp major) tell you 'bout the night (A major)
