[Verse 1]
Cmaj              C
Kate wasn't in to moderation
F                  C
That's what led to her frustration
         Cmaj       C             F       C
With the state of her crumbling heart
           Cmaj               C
She'd say "I'm not a girl for temperance,
         F               C
Though I know it's at my heart's expense
      Cmaj            C                  F        C
But a downward spiral has to have a rock bottom.
[Instrumental]
Cmaj  C  F  C
Cmaj  C  F  C
[Verse 2]
      Cmaj                 C
She'd paint the walls with blue and green
F                            C
Singing 'bout sing about her lovers and dreams and
Cmaj        C              F       C
Explain her hopeless desperation
Cmaj                  C
Take off your shoes unravel your blues
Cmaj                  C
This place is full of beggars and choosers
        Cmaj               C          F        C
But the consequence of her liberty is bad
[Chorus]
       G                     C      F
But my heart wants to go one way my mind don't agree
      G               C          F
Cause they, they have fallen out recently
[Instrumental]
Cmaj  C  F  C
Cmaj  C  F  C
[Verse 3]
Cmaj      C
"Know thy self" she said 
       F                     C
as she guarded me 'round the land of the dead
     Cmaj       C                   F            C
Introducing her friend stuck in the same mess
Cmaj                     C
Ships might be built for sailing, my love
    F               C
and easels made for painting
    Cmaj         C                        F             C
But you ain't no sailor and I'll never be camera shy
[Chorus]
G                        C      F
My heart wants to go one way my mind don't agree
G                            C   F
Cause they, they have fallen out recently
G              Gsus4  G
Well she said
Am7     G      F         Am7    G      F
"will I praise again? Oh will I praise again?"
[Instrumental]
G     F   F
G  C  F   F
[Chorus]
         G                     C      F
Cause my heart wants to go one way my mind don't agree
    G               C          F
And they, they have fallen out recently
G              Gsus4 G
And she said,
    Am7    G      F
"Oh will I praise again?"
    Am7    G      F
"Oh will I praise again?"
 Am7            G     F
"Will I, will I sing again?"
 Am7     G     F
"Will I, praise again?"
