D                     A/C#
The light bulbs buzz, I get up

And head to my drawer I wish there was more

I could say

Another fairy - tale fades to gray
     D
I?ve lived on hope

Like a child

Walking that mile, faking that smile

All the while

Wishing my heart had wings

Well, from now on, I?m going to be

The kind of woman I?d want my daughter to be, oh
