[Intro]

C C C C

[Verse 1]
C                              F
 Once upon a time, the planets and
 the fates
                   C
And all the stars aligned
                          F
You and I ended up in the same room 
at the same time
C                                F
 And the touch of a hand lit the 
fuse
                              C
Of a chain reaction of countermoves
                          F
To assess the equation of you, 
checkmate, I couldn't lose
 

[Pre-Chorus]
Am                          F
 What if I told you none of it was
 accidental?
        G                           
And the first night that you saw me,
   C                C/B
 nothing was gonna stop me
Am                        F
I laid the groundwork and then, just
 like clockwork
    G
The dominoes cascaded in a line
 

[Chorus]
                         C
What if I told you I'm a mastermind?
    F
And now you're mine
           Am
It was all by design
 G           F
'Cause I'm a mastermind
 

[Verse 2]
C                       F
 You see all the wisest women had to
 do it this way
C                             F
'Cause we were born to be the pawn 
in every lover's game
C                                
 If you fail to plan, you plan to
 F
 fail
                                C
Strategy sets the scene for the tale
                                 
I'm the wind in our free-flowing 
F
sails and the liquor in our 
cocktails
 

[Pre-Chorus]
Am                          F
 What if I told you none of it was
 accidental?
        G                           
And the first night that you saw me,
   C                  C/B
 I knew I wanted your body?
Am                        F
I laid the groundwork and then, just
 like clockwork
    G
The dominoes cascaded in a line
 

[Chorus]
                         C
What if I told you I'm a mastermind?
    F
And now you're mine
           Am
It was all by design
 G           F
'Cause I'm a mastermind
 

[Bridge]
C
 No one wanted to play with me as a
 little kid
C
 So I've been scheming like a
 criminal ever since
F
 To make them love me and make it
 seem effortless
F
 This is the first time I've felt 
the need to confess
    Em     F          G
And I swear, I'm only cryptic and 
Machiavellian 'cause I care
 

[Pre-Chorus]
Am                     F
 So I told you none of it was
 accidental
        G                           
And the first night that you saw me,
   C                C/B
 nothing was gonna stop me
Am                        F
I laid the groundwork and then saw a
 wide smirk
   G
On your face, you knew the entire 
time
 

[Chorus]
                    C
You knew that I'm a mastermind
    F
And now you're mine
              Am
Yeah, all you did was smile
 G           F         C
'Cause I'm a mastermind
