INTRO: D
VERSE ONE:
D G A D
It's funny when you find yourself looking from the outside
D G A D Dmaj7
I'm standing here but all I want is to be over there
Bm G A D Dmaj7
Why did I let myself believe miracles could happen
D G A D
Cause now I have to pretend that I don't really care
CHORUS ONE:
G A
I thought you were my fairytale
D Dmaj7 Bm
A dream, when I'm not sleeping
G A Bm
A wish upon a star that's coming true
G A
But everybody else could tell
D Dmaj7 Bm G
That I confused my feelings with the truth
G A
When there was me and you
VERSE TWO:
E A B E
I swore I knew the melody that I heard you singing
E A B E Emaj7
And when you smiled, you made me feel like I could sing along
C#m A
But then you went and changed the words
B E Emaj7
Now my heart is empty
E A B E
I'm only left with used-to-be's and once upon a song
CHORUS TWO:
A B
Now I know you're not a fairytale
E Emaj7 C#m B
And dreams were meant for sleeping
A B C#m
And wishes on a star just don't come true
A B
Cause now, even I can tell
E Emaj7 C#m B A
That I confused my feelings with the truth
A B
Because I liked the view
B G
When there was me and you
BRIDGE:
G
I can't believe that
D
I could be so blind
F#m
It's like you were floating, while I was falling
G D B
And I didn't mind
OUTRO:
C#m A
Because I liked the view
A B
I thought you felt it too
E
When there was me and you
