                       *C   D

There was a castle by a waterfall,

      *C              D

With a pink and purple wall,

     C                      G


And a princess living there. 
 *C D
 She had no parents and was all alone, 
 *C D She got by on her own,


       G               C  D G

And she liked it pretty well.


 D 
'Cause she never wore her socks, 
 G She had a pet snake, 
 D She bought a red guitar, 
 Em And she ate a whole cake.


 C D
 And there wasn't anybody there to tell her what to do,

      D7b9         C      A


So she did what she wanted to.


    C                          D7                         *C D

                         *C     D


There was a dragon with a pointy tail, 
 *C D He was bigger than a whale,

       C                 G


And his breath was terrible.


                              *C     D


He scared the princess when he came around, 
 *C D Tried to burn the castle down, 
 G C D G But she caught him by his tail.


                      D


Then she tied him to a tree, 
 G So the dragon couldn't fly,

                   D


She told him he was mean, 
 Em And it made the dragon cry. 


                 C                             D


When he finally apologized she offered him some tea, 
 D7b9 C A He accepted it graciously.

      C                             D7                        *C D

 G *C D
 There was a witch who was an evil queen, 
 *C D She was wrinkled old and green, 
 C G And she hated everyone. 
 *C D 
She saw the princess in her silver gown, 
 *C D Put the poison apple down, 
 G C D G Asked her where she bought her clothes.


                       D


So they got the witch a dress, 
 G Put some make-up on her face, 
 D They started up a band, 
 Em And the dragon played the bass.
