Missy Higgins - How Was I To Know
chords by Fallsy
[Intro]
C Ab
C Ab
[Verse 1]
C
When the order came to dig the well
C
To crack the earth to pull the oil
Ab
To take the blood out from my mother’s veins
C
Well I broke the ground to feed my mouth
C
I did not here the warning bell
Ab
I could not put back in what I took out
[Chorus]
Fm
How was I to know
Ab
How was I to know
C
I’d be a stepping stone
Eb
To the end
Ab
The end of everything
Fm Eb
How was I to know
[Verse 2]
C
On the day I built a house so high
C
It’s antenna did scrape the sky
Ab
Well everyone applauded in my shadow
C
So my neighbour built a higher one
C
Then again his neighbour after him
Ab
Till soon racing through the clouds was all that mattered
Bb
Up and up the buildings went
Cm
Glass and stone and hard cement
Ab
Till all the green was left to die below
[Chorus]
Fm
How was I to know
Ab
How was I to know
Cm
I’d be a stepping stone
Eb
To the end
