[Intro]
C
........
[Verse 1]
C F
What if Romeo didn't call Juliet?
Am G
Left her stuck on a balcony waiting
F G
Didn’t plan a second date and
C F
What if Prince Charming was way too guarded?
Am G
Hot and cold when it came to love
F G
So he stood the princess up
Dm Em F
As a kid you think of love the way it's written
Dm Em G
But growing up it don't play out how you envision
[Chorus]
C
I wish the end of this story
G
Was you and I meant to be
Am G
Fireworks, champagne pouring
F G
And some kind of magic in the breeze
C
But this ain’t happy ever after
Em F
It turns out reality is
Am G F
That I'm alone here in this stupid restaurant
G
Looking my best
F Fm
No knight in shining armor tonight
C
Just a damsel in this dress
[Verse 2]
C F
Hate that I spent half my paycheck
Am G
On this strapless little red number
F G
'Cause I know you love this color
Am G
And it's too bright, kinda wish that
F
You were here to see me in it
G
Maybe then it'd all be different
[Chorus]
C
I wish the end of this story
G
Was you and I meant to be
Am G
Fireworks, champagne pouring
F G
And some kind of magic in the breeze
C
But this ain’t happy ever after
Em F
It turns out reality is
Am G F
That I'm alone here in this stupid restaurant
G
Looking my best
F Fm
No knight in shining armor tonight
Am
Just a damsel in this dress
[Bridge]
G
Coulda called, coulda told me you were running late
Em G
Showed up in the nick of time, walked in and saved the day
[Chorus]
C
I wish the end of this story
G
Was you and I meant to be
Am G
Fireworks, champagne pouring
F G
And some kind of magic in the breeze
C
But this ain’t happy ever after
Em F
It turns out reality is
Am G F
That I'm alone here in this stupid restaurant
G
Looking my best
F Fm
No knight in shining armor tonight
C
Just a damsel in this dress
