C/G I was brought up in taffeta dresses G7sus4 And taught to be pretty and precious G5 Spending my playtimes with plastic princesses E7/G# Who all had bodies just utterly ludicrous Am G# Minuscule waists and huge boobs Am/G Am/F# F Dm9 And it's all nipples and no pubes and no creases D# C/E I mean Jesus it's pretty confusing G F Especially at 6. C/G In that fairytale world all the girls end up happy ever after. F/G Wooing their knights in shining armour. G But some nights down the track
You can bet they'll be trapped
E Spending nights 'n shining armour. Am Am/G Am/F# While their knights spend their nights at the bar Am/F Am Or at a ball with some harlot Am/G Am/F# I'm not bitter it's just better F6 Am G# That I don't fall for all that romantic bullshit C/G D7/F# Now that I'm older. Dm9 C/E Though I don't mind the thought of being tossed over a shoulder F D7/F# G And trotted off to a mansion by some ruggedly handsome man in a fireman helmet E/G# Am Am/G And have him just use me for sex. Dm7 F/G C As I say - it's a little complex. C E7 One day, some day Am my prince may come D7 But it doesn't seem likely Dm7 C But even if he came and he liked me D7 G#5 It's likely he'd be not quite my type. C E7 Some day, they say Am D7 He'll come ridin' up on the back of a horse Dm7 But of course C I'm allergic to horses D7 How will I tell him G7#5 He'll just have to sell him. D/A I went to school with a girl
I remember her well

But she wouldn't stay of course
F#7/A# She wanted prince charming Bm So she went to LA of course F#7b9 Managed to seduce a
Famous actor or producer
Bm9
Shacked up in a house in the hillsWith a cat and a juicer
F#7b9
- and a fancy car- and a tennis court.
Bm9 But the guy wasn't quite G#7b9 The catch she'd thought she caught. C#m9 He treats her like trash B Then you know the drill E Takes his cat and his cash A And finds some younger girl E A So she's left with a stupid corvette B And an empty swimming pool G#7/B# G#7 Which she fills with regret C#m C#m/B A Smart girl but kinda dumb... F#m7 And I'd rather be lonely F#7 Than sit on my fanny B B7 Waiting for my prince to come- E G#7 One day, some day C#m He'll come sweeping in F# And sweep me off my feet F#m And spend the next 4 decades E Wanting to cheat on me F#9 Getting less handsome B And fighting his dragons. Cm He'd know what to wear Bb He'd have a full head of hair Eb And his eyes would be brown
Or blue.
Ab
Or green.Well, I don't care.
Eb And his body would be toned with those Ab Bbsus4 Pecks you get at the gym

Cm And he'll love reading books, Bb He'll be an excellent cook, Eb Ab He'll be good looking but not to aware of his looks. Eb He'll be tender but tough Ab And smart but not smug Bb And attentive but not fawning

Ab Eb Every time the Steelers lose a game Fm7 Bb7#5 Bb7 Thanks - but perhaps another day. Eb G One day, some day Cm My prince may come F But I won't hold my breath Fm There's only divorcees Eb And weirdos left F9 And weird is fine Ab/Bb But not all the time Eb G One day,some day Cm7 My prince will come F9 So the fairytale said Fm Eb 30 years later it's still in my head F7 That if I screw a frog Ab/Bb Eb I will wake up in a four-poster bed.
