Intro:
Gb/Bb, Gb4/B, Gb2/Ab    X2    end with Db

Shrek 
Db                Gb                  Gb/F  Ebm
I guess I'd be a hero, With sword and armor clashing
       Gb/Bb Ab/C                        Db
Looking semi dashing, A shield within my grip
Db         Db/F  Gb                Gb/F     Ebm 
Or else I'd be a Viking and live a life of daring 
                Gb/Bb     Ab/C               Gb2
While smelling like a herring, upon a Viking ship.
         Db2/F            Gb2                    Fm7 
I'd sail away, I'd see the world, I'd reach the farthest reaches 
Gb2          Db2/F               Gb2      F/A
I'd feel the wind, I'd taste the salt and sea. 
    Bbm    Ab/C      Gb
And maybe storm some beaches. 

Gb2                               Db
That's who I'd be. That's who I'd be. 

Db              Gb                Gb/F    Ebm
Or I could be a poet and write a different story, 
         Gb/Bb     Ab/C                        Db
One that tells of glory, and wipes away the lies 
Db         Db/F       Gb                       Gb/F     Ebm
And to the skies I'd throw it, the stars would do the telling 
               Gb/Bb     Ab/C                              Gb2
The moon would help with spelling, and night would dot the 'I's
 
            Db2/F            Gb2               Fm7 
I'd write a verse, Recite a joke, with wit and perfect timing. 
Gb2           Db2/F               Gb2      F/A      Bbm   Ab/C      Gb
I'd share my heart, confess the things I yearn, and do it all while rhyming. 
Gb                 
But we all learn. But we all learn.

Db2          Ab2/C    
And Ogre always hides,    
Db2          Ab2/C 
an Ogre's fate is known 
Db2                                       Cm   Bbsus4  Bb
And Ogre always stays in the dark and all alone 

D         D/F#  G               D/F#     Em
So yes I'd be a hero, and if my wish was granted
          G/B  A/C#                        D
Life would be enchanted, or so the stories say.
D            D/F#  G                 D/F#     Em
Of course I'd be a hero, and I would scale a tower 
            G/B      A/C#                   D
And save a hot-house flower, and carry her away 
G2           D2/F#            G2                 F#m
But standing guard would be a beast, I'd somehow over whelm it,
G2         D2/F#                  G2           F#m
I'd get the girl, I'd take my breath, and I'd remove my helmet. 

G2             D2/F#                G2                  F#m
We'd stand and stare, we'd speak of love, we'd feel the stars ascending 
G             D2/F#            G2   F#         
We'd share a kiss, I'd find my destiny
    Bm     A2     G         Bm      A
I'd have a hero's ending, a perfect happy ending.
G
That's how it would be
  Em         D/F#          G
A big bright beautiful world 
A           
But not for me.

G2/B      D/A          G         D/F#         G/B                   A/C#
An ogre always hides. An ogres fate is known. An ogre always stays in the dark

                                             Shrek (same time as Fiona's same line)
                                              An ogre always stays in the dark

                                                                     Donkey
                                                                      you're all alone

C#m
All Alone (All at the same time)

Shrek
Eb        EB/G    Ab           Eb/G      Fm         Ab/Eb         Bb/D                        Eb
So yes i'd be a hero, and if my wish was granted my life would be enchanted or so the stories say. 
Eb            Eb/G Ab              Eb/G     Fm                         Bb                  Ab2
Of course I'd be a hero and I would scale a tower to save a hot-house flower and carry her away!

              Fiona
                There are rules and there are strictures. I believe the story books i read by candle light
              Donkey
                Don't let me go, Don't let me go, Don't let me go


All
  Cm      Bb/D   Ab2    Cm/G   Fm       Bb2  Bb    Eb  Eb/G  Ab  Eb/G  Fm  Bbsus4  Bb    And then end on Eb
A perfect happy ending, that's how.... it.. should be!
