Abba - Cassandra guitar tab

(VERSE) (C)Down in the street they're all (F)singing and (C)shouting

Staying (G/B)alive though the (Am)city is (G)dead

(G/F)Hiding their (C/E)shame behind (G7)hollow (C)laughter

While (C/E)you are (F)crying (D7/F#)alone on your (G)bed

(C)Pity Cassandra that (F)no one (C)believed you

But then (G/B)again you were (Am)lost from the (G)start

(G/F)Now we must (C/E)suffer and (F/A)sell our (C/G)secrets

(F6)Bargain, (G)playing (Am)smart, (Dm7)aching (G)in our (C)hearts

(CHORUS) Sorry Cassandra I (G7)misunderstood

Now the last day is (C)dawning

Some of us wanted but (G7)none of us could

Listen to words of (C)warning

But on the darkest of (E)nights

Nobody (Am)knew how to (E)fight

And we were caught in our (Am)sleep

Sorry Cassandra I (G7)didn't believe

You really had the (C)power

I only saw it as (G7)dreams you would weave

Until the final (C)hour

(VERSE) So in the morning your ship will be sailing

Now that your father and sister are gone

There is no reason for you to linger

You're grieving deeply but still moving on

You know the future is casting a shadow

No one else sees it but you know you're fate

Packing your bags, being slow and thorough

Knowing, though you're late, that ship is sure to wait

(CHORUS)

(VERSE) I watched the ship leaving harbour at sunrise

Sails almost slack in the cool morning rain

She stood on deck, just a tiny figure

Rigid and restrained, blue eyes filled with pain

(CHORUS)

I'm sorry Cassandra

I'm sorry Cassandra
