Am
When I was just a little girl
C G
My momma used to tuck me into bed and she
E Am
read me a story
C
It always was about a Princess in distress
G E
And how a guy would save her and end up with
Am
the glory
B Am
I'd lie in bed and think about the person that I
wanted to be
B Am D
Then one day I realized the fairy tale life wasn't
for me
[Chorus]
Am G
I don't wanna be like Cinderella
C G
Sittin' in a dark old dusty cellar
C E
Waiting for somebody, to come and set me free
Am G
I don't wanna be like Snow White waiting
C G
For a handsome prince to come and save me
C E
On a horse of white, unless we're riding side by side
F E
Don't want to depend on no-one else
Am
I'd rather rescue myself
Am C
Someday I'm gonna find someone who wants my
soul, heart and mind
G E Am
Who's not afraid to show that he loves me
C
Somebody who will understand I'm happy just
G E Am
the way I am Don't need nobody taking care of
me
B Am
I will be there for him just as strong as he, will be there for me
B Am D
When I give myself then it has got to be, an equal thing
[Chorus]
C D
I can slay, my own dragon
C Am
I can dream, my own dreams
C G F
My knight in shining armour is me
C G
So I'm gonna set me free
