Capo 5
C F
An old fairytale told me
C Am
The simple heart will be prized again
C F
A toad will be our king
C Am
And ugly ogres are heroes
G
Then you'll shake
Am G
Your fist at the sky
Am G
"Oh why did I rely
Am Dm G
On fashions and small fry?"
C F
All promises broken
C Am
Feed your people or lose your throne
C F
And forfeit your whole kingdom
C Am G
I'd sooner lose it than still live in it alone
Am G
You were our golden child
Am G
But the gentle and the mild
F Dm G
Inherit the earth, while
C Dm Am
Your prince's crown
Bb C
Cracks and falls down
Dm G7 Bb7M
Your castle hollow and cold
F C Dm
You've wandered so far
A# F
From the person you are
Dm Am A#
Let go brother, let go
A# C F
Cos now we all know
Am G Em F
Soon, someone will put a spell on you
Am G Em F Dm
Perfume, treasure, sorcery, every trick they know
G
You will lie in a deep sleep
G7
That's when
C Dm Am
Your prince's crown
Bb C
Cracks and falls down
Dm G7 Bb7M
Your castle hollow and cold
C Dm Am
You've wandered so far
F C
From the person you are
Dm G7 F
Let go brother, let go
F G7 C
Cos now we all know
