(VERSE)  
C                              F           C
Down in the street they're all singing and shouting  
        G/B              Am      G
Staying alive though the city is dead 
G/F          C/E          G7     C
Hiding their shame behind hollow laughter 
      C/E     F      D7/F#         G
While you are crying alone on your bed 
C                   F      C
Pity Cassandra that no one believed you 
         G/B            Am            G
But then again you were lost from the start 
G/F         C/E        F/A      C/G
Now we must suffer and sell our secrets 
F6       G       Am     Dm7    G      C
Bargain, playing smart, aching in our hearts 
 
(Chorus)  
                  G7
Sorry Cassandra I misunderstood 
                    C
Now the last day is dawning 
                      G7
Some of us wanted but none of us could 
                   C
Listen to words of warning 
                      E
But on the darkest of nights 
       Am          E
Nobody knew how to fight 
                          Am
And we were caught in our sleep 
                  G7
Sorry Cassandra I didn't believe 
                   C
You really had the power 
                 G7
I only saw it as dreams you would weave 
                C
Until the final 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
