Who are you?

Am Am/E (spoken) They weren't ready for my ideas
URSUA , spoken

Fmaj7 Em Au contraire! My only crime was love. Fmaj7 In town there was only she who was as beautiful as me - on the inside. Em But then, tragedy struck. F She was taken hostage in a castle filled with demonic furniture. Dm Bb So I did what anyone would do and I organized a rescue mission. Am Fmaj7 But how was I to know that she had fallen in love with her captor? Am F E To me, that doesn't seem entirely healthy, especially since he's a wolf-bear thing. A buffalo monster. In a cape. F But the heart wants what it wants - (sung) E E7 Am Am/E And sometimes what it wants is twisted
