Fairytale

Cinderella's on her (Ebm7)bedroom floor.

She's got a (Gb)crush on the guy at the (Bbm)liquor store

(Ab)'cause Mister Charming don't come (Ebm7)home anymore,

and she (Gb)forgets why she came (Db)here.

(Ab)Sleeping Beauty's in a foul (Ebm7)mood.

For shame, she says, (Gb)"None for you,

dear prince;

I'm (Bbm)tired today.

(Ab)I'd rather sleep my whole (Ebm7)life away than have you (Gb)keep me from (Db)dreaming."

'Cause (Gb)I (Fsus4)don't care

(Ab)for your (Gb)(Fsus4)fairy tales.

(Ab)You're so (Gb)worried 'bout the (Fsus4)maiden,

though you (Bbm)know she's only (Ab)waiting on the (Gb)next (Fsus4)best thing.

(Dbsus2)Next best thing.

(Ab)Snow White is doing (Ebm7)dishes again 'cause what (Gb)else can you do with seven itty bitty men?

(Ab)Sends them to bed and she (Ebm7)calls up a friend;

says, "Would you (Gb)meet me at (Db)midnight?"

Oh. (Ab)The tall blonde lets out a (Ebm7)cry of despair;

says, "Would have (Gb)cut it myself if I knew men could climb (Bbm)(Ab)hair.

I'll have to find another (Ebm7)tower somewhere and keep (Gb)away from the (Db)windows."

'Cause (Dbsus2)(Db)Once (Bbm)upon a (Ab)time in a (Db5)faraway kingdom,

man (Bbm)made up a (Ab)story, said that (Db5)I should believe him.

Go (Bbm)and tell your (Ab)white knight that he's (Db5)handsome in (Eb)hindsight,

but (Gb)I don't want the next (Db)best (Gb)thing.

So I sing and (Bbm)hold (Ab)my (Dbsus2)head down and I break

(Ab)these (Dbsus2)walls 'round me.

Can't (Bbm)take (Ab)no (Dbsus2)more

of your (Gb)fairy tale (Db)love.

(Gb)I (Fsus4)don't care

(Ab)for your (Gb)(Fsus4)fairy tales.

(Ab)You're so (Gb)worried 'bout the (Fsus4)maiden,

though you (Bbm)know she's only (Ab)waiting on the (Gb)next (Fsus4)best thing.

(Gb)I (Fsus4)don't care.

(Gb)I (Fsus4)don't care.

(Ab)You (Gb)worry 'bout the (Fsus4)maiden, though you (Bbm)know she's (Ab)only waiting.

Spent her (Dbsus2)whole life being graded on the (Bbm)sanctity of (Ab)patience and a (Dbsus2)dumb appreciation.

But the (Bbm)story needs (Ab)some mending and a (Dbsus2)better happy (Eb)ending,

'cause (Gb)I don't want the next (Db)best (Gb)thing.

No, no, I don't want the (F5)next best (Bbm)thing.
