Barbie As The Princess And The Pauper- To Be A Princess

• G

My quest to tab "Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper" continues! Here's 
'To be a princess', yet another duet (like everything else in this movie!), but this time:
with trickier chords... good luck!


Intro: G F (pause) F F 
G F (pause) F F

Part 1:
G
To be a princess
      F                        F F 
Is to know which spoon to use
G
To be a princess
            F                 G
is to own a thousand pairs of shoes
   Gm               F
To maintain a regal gait    
Leave the parsley on your plate
        D
And be charming but detached
And yet amused
G
To be a princess
      F         G
Is to never be confused

G             D
Do a plié and never fall
Am                    G
Don't ever stray from protocol
All through the day
        D
There's just one way
    Em       D
You must behave
G                   D
Do keep a grip and never crack
Am                   G
Stiff upper lip and arch the back
Bend from above
     D                G
And always wear your gloves
     D
And wave

C
Shoulders back and
Tummy in and
G
Pinky out and
Lift the chin and
C                                  G
Slowly turn the head from side to side

Part 2:
G
I see now!

Part 1:
C 
Breathing gently
Stepping lightly
G
Smile brightly
Nod politely
Am                           D
Never show a thing you feel inside
Glide!

G
To be a princess
       F                    F F
Is to always look your best
G
To be a princess
       F            G
Is to never get to rest
          Gm               F
Sit for a portrait, never squirm
Sleep on a mattress extra firm
              D
Speak and be clever
Never at a loss for words
G                D
Curtsy to every count and lord
Am                    G
Learn how to play the harpsichord
                    D                  C
Sing lullabies and always harmonize in thirds

BOTH:
C        D
Thirds, thirds

Part 1:
D                      G
And She has beautiful eyes
              D
Your spirits rise      G
When she walks in the room

Part 2:
G
I see... ;)

Part 1:
       C
Doors close
                   G
And the chemistry grows
              D
She's like a rose
That's forever in bloom!

Part 1:                                     (Part 2:)
                                 
G             D                              
Do a plié and don't                         (Ever ever ever fall)
           C          
Never show dismay                           (And be there when people call)

    G           D           C         D
Be prepared whatever royal life will bring
G                   D                                        Am
Do keep a grip and don't                    (Ever ever ever crack)
Am                                            C                    G
Take a dainty sip                           (Never ever turn your back)

G                   D                 Em   D
There's a time and place and way for everything

G
To be a princess
       F                   F F
Is to never make your bed
G
To be a princess
        F              G
Is to always use your head!
