Mastermind chords by Taylor Swift (Ver. 3)

Key: 'A'

Intro:

 E




E              E4
Once upon a time, the planets and the fates
           E
And all the stars aligned
              E4
You and I ended up in the same room

At the same time

E              E4
And the touch of a hand lit the fuse
               E
Of a chain reaction of countermoves
             E4
To assess the equation of you

Checkmate
I couldn't lose

C#m7             A2
What if I told you none of it was accidental?
      B4
And the first night that you saw me
  E        B/D#
Nothing was gonna stop me
C#m7           A2
I laid the groundwork and then, just like clockwork
    B4
The dominoes cascaded in a line
                E
What if I told you I'm the mastermind?
   A2
And now you're mine
      C#m7
It was all by design
  B4   A2
'Cause I'm a mastermind

E            E4
You see, all the wisest women had to do it this way
E              E4
'Cause we were born to be the pawn in every lover's game

E               E4
If you fail to plan, you plan to fail
                 E
Strategy sets the scene for the tale
                  E4
I'm the wind in our free-flowing sails

And the liquor in our cocktails

C#m7             A2
What if I told you none of it was accidental?
      B4
And the first night that you saw me
  E        B/D#
I knew I wanted your body?
C#m7           A2
I laid the groundwork and then, just like clockwork
    B4
The dominoes cascaded in a line
                E
What if I told you I'm the mastermind?
   A2
And now you're mine
      C#m7
It was all my design
  B4   A2
'Cause I'm a mastermind

E
No one wanted to play with me as a little kid

So I've been scheming like a criminal ever since
A4
To make them love me and make it seem effortless

This is the first time I feel the need to confess
   G#m  A2
And I swear
I'm only cryptic and Machiavellian
       C#m7
'Cause I care

            A2
So I told you none of it was accidental
     B4
And the first night that you saw me
  E       B/D#
Nothing was gonna stop me
C#m7            A2
I laid the groundwork and then, saw a wild smirk
     B4
On your face, you knew the entire time
             E
You knew that I'm a mastermind
   A2
And now you're mine
        C#m7
Yeah, all you did was smile
  B4    A2
'Cause I'm a mastermind

Final: E
