[Verse 1]
Am
The people are sitting
DM
They keep only staring
G C Em
Trusting these girls who win simply by glaring
Am
They sit there like royals
Dm
Screaming and crying
G
Letting on that they’re bleeding
C Em
Telling us that they’re dying
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
They try and they die
Dm
The only way to survive
G C Em
Is to lie until you can’t find where to hide
Am
You may have one ally
Dm
But even as you cry
G C Em
they refuse to look you in the eyes
[Chorus]
Am Dm
They plead and they plead and they don’t even bleed
G C Em
Are you the witch or is it only me
Am
no one knows who to trust
Dm
No one feels any love
G C
God is dead in this town
Em Am
This town of salem
Am Dm G C Em
[Verse 2]
Am
Seven wear the crown
Dm
They think they’re saving heaven
G
But I'm not a witch
C Em
I’m only eleven
Am
I just spoke my mind
Dm
Why am I being tried
G
No one listens
C Em
They only care about my “crimes”
[Pre-chorus]
Am
I could lie to survive
DM
I can’t look them in the eyes
G
They’ll scream if i do
C Em
So why even try
Am
God please let me win
Dm
I’m not guilty of sin
G C Em
I danced in no woods and held up my chin
[Chorus]
Am Dm
I plead and I plead and I can’t even bleed
G C Em
Are you the witch, no its me
Am
No one can trust
Dm
I dont feels any love
G C
God is dead in this town
Em Am
This town of salem
Am Dm G C Em
[Bridge]
Am Dm
God so holy, full of grace,
G C Em
make the world a better place.
Am Dm
Give us the food we need for today.
G
Forgive us our wrongs
C Em
when we go astray.
Am
Help us always to do good,
Dm
and love others, like we should.
G C Em
God we love you; we are yours.
Am Dm
Swing wide open
G C Em
heaven's doors.
Am Dm G C Em
Amen.
Am Dm G C Em
Ameeeeen

[Chorus]
Am Dm
I can’t even plead but soon I’ll be freed
G C Em
You’re the witch and it cannot be me
Am
No one can trust
Dm
Just forget your loved ones
G C
God is dead in this town
Em Am
This town of salem
Am Dm G C Em
Salem
N.C.
Amen
Am
