                        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      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, 
       D7           C      A
 
So she did what she wanted to.
 
     C                          D7            C      D 
Everybody knew the story of the princess who saved herself. 

 C           D 
(Princess who saved herself) 

 C           D          G 
(Princess who saved herself)
 

                          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   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, 

   D7              A 
He accepted it graciously. 
       C                             D7                  C D 

Now he visits every weekend with the princess who saved herself.

(Bridge phone conversation...)
 


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.
 

                    C                               D 

Every Saturday they play until their fingertips are sore, 
       D7          C        A
 
Mostly Math Rock and Cuddle Core. 
         C                                  D7                    C D
 
And they call themselves The Kingdom Of The Princess Who Saved Herself. 

 C            D 
(Princess who saved herself) 
 C            D
 
(Princess who saved herself)
 
 C               D
 
The princess who saved herself. 

 C            D 
(Princess who saved herself) 

 C            D             G 
(Princess who saved herself)
