Lyrics
Cinderella's on her (Em7)bedroom floor.
She's got (G)a crush on a guy at the (Bm)liquor store
(A)'cause Mister Charming don't come (Em7)home anymore,
and she (G)forgets why she came (D)here.
(A)Sleeping Beauty's in a (Em7)foul mood.
For shame, she says, (G)"None for you,
dear prince;
I'm (Bm)tired (A)today.
I'd rather sleep my whole life away than have you (G)keep me from (D)dreaming."
'Cause (G)I (F#sus4)don't care (A)for your (G)(F#sus4)fairy tales.
(A)You're so (G)worried 'bout the (F#sus4)maiden,
though you (Bm)know she's only (A)waiting on the (G)next (F#sus4)best thing.
(Dsus2)Next best thing.
(A)Snow White is doing (Em7)dishes again 'cause what (G)else can you do with seven itty bitty men?
(A)Sends them to bed and she (Em7)call up a friend;
says, "Would you (G)meet me at (D)midnight?"
Oh. The tall blonde lets out a (Em7)cry of despair;
says, "Would have (G)cut it myself if I knew (Bm)men could climb hair.
I'll have to find another (Em7)tower somewhere and keep (G)away from the (D)windows."
'Cause (Dsus2)(D)Once upon a (A)time in a (D5)faraway kingdom,
man (Bm)made up a (A)story, said that (D5)I should believe him.
Go and tell your (A)white knight that he's (D5)handsome in (Esus4)(E)hindsight,
but (G)I don't want the next best thing.
So I sing and (A)hold my (Dsus2)head down and I (A)break
these (Dsus2)walls 'round me.
Can't take (A)no more
of your (G)fairytale love.
I (F#sus4)don't care (A)for your (G)(F#sus4)fairy tales.
(A)You're so (G)worried 'bout the (F#sus4)maiden,
though you (Bm)know she's only (A)waiting on the (G)next (F#sus4)best thing.
(G)I (F#sus4)don't care.
(G)I (F#sus4)don't care.
(A)You (G)worry 'bout the (F#sus4)maiden, though you (Bm)know she's (A)only waiting.
Spent her (Dsus2)whole life being graded on the (Bm)sanctity (A)of patience and a (Dsus2)dumb appreciation.
But the (Bm)story needs (A)some mending and a (Dsus2)better happy (E)ending 'cause (G)I don't want the next best thing.
No, no, I don't want the next best (Bm)thing.
