GDm7 Cinderella's on her bedroom floor Dm7 She's got a FAm Crush on the guy at the liquor store GDm7 Cause Mr Charming don't come home anymore FCF And she forgets why she came here GDm7 Sleeping Beauty's in a foul mood Dm7 For shame she says FAm None for you dear prince I'm tired today GDm7FCF I'd rather sleep my whole life away than have you keep me from dreaming
[Chorus:] AmGFCAmGF I don't care for your fairytales GC You're so worried about the maiden though you know Dm7AmGF She's only waiting on the next best thing F next best thing
G Snow White is doing dishes again cause Dm7 What else could you do FAm With seven itty-bitty men GDm7 Sends them to bed and she calls up a friend FCF Says will you meet me at midnight GDm7 The tall blonde lets out a cry of despair says FAm Would have cut it myself if I knew men could climb hair GDm7FCF I'll have to find another tower somewhere and keep away from the windows
[Chorus]
GDm7 Once upon a time in a faraway kingdom FAm Man made up a story said that I should believe him GDm7 Go and tell your white knight that he's handsome in hindsight FCF But I don't want the next best thing F So I sing GDm7FAm I hold my head down and I break these walls round me FDm7 Can't take no more of your fairytale love
AmGF I don't care CAmGF For your fairytales GC You're so worried bout the maiden though you know Dm7 She's only waiting Am spent the whole life being GFAmG graded on the sanctity of patience and a dumb F Appreciation AmGFAm But the story needs some mending and a better happy ending GFAm Cause I don't want the next best thing GFAm No no I don't want the next best thing
