Difficulty: Intermediate

RITA:
C/GC/G
I was brought up in tafetta dresses
  G7sus4G7sus4
And taught to be pretty and precious
      G5G5
Spending my playtimes with plastic princesses
      E7/G#
Who all had bodies just utterly ludicrous
     A minorAm       G#G#
Miniscual waists and huge boobs
     Am/GAm/G   Am/F#   FF      Dm9Dm9
And it's all nippless and no pubes and no creases
    D#D#          C/EC/E
I mean Jesus it's pretty confusing
 G+G      FF
Especially at 6.

         C/GC/G
In that fairytale world all the girls end up happy ever after.
F/GF/G
Wooing their knights in shining armour.
     G+G
But some nights down the track
You can bet they'll be trapped
E MajorE
Spending nights 'n shining armour.

      A minorAm         Am/GAm/G       Am/F#
While their knights spend their nights at the bar
    Am/F      A minorAm
Or at a ball with some harlot
    Am/GAm/G       Am/F#
I'm not bitter it's just better
       F6F6        A minorAm    G#G#
That I don't fall for all that romantic bullshit
C/GC/G     D7/F#D7/F#
Now that I'm older.
     Dm9Dm9                  C/EC/E
Though I don't mind the thought of being tossed over a shoulder
      FF            D7/F#D7/F#       G+G
And trotted off to a mansion by some ruggedly handsome man in a fireman helmet
  E/G#           A minorAm  Am/GAm/G
And have him just use me for sex.
   Dm7Dm7     F/GF/G    C majorC
As I say - it's a little complex.

C majorC    E7E7
One day, some day
  A minorAm
my prince may come
    D7D7
But it doesn't seem likely
  Dm7Dm7          C majorC
But even if he came and he liked me
   D7D7       G#5G#5
It's likely he'd be not quite my type.

C majorC     E7E7
Some day, they say
      A minorAm        D7D7
He'll come ridin' up on the back of a horse
Dm7Dm7
But of course
   C majorC
I'm allergic to horses
D7D7
How will I tell him
   G7#5
He'll just have to sell him.

     D/AD/A
I went to school with a girl
I remember her well
    G/AG/A
She was pretty smart - and pretty as hell
        A augmentedA
Her folks had a farm
But she wouldn't stay of course
         F#7/A#
She wanted prince charming
        B minorBm
So she went to LA of course
       F#7b9F#7b9
Managed to seduce a
Famous actor or producer
        Bm9Bm9
Shacked up in a house in the hills
With a cat and a juicer
    F#7b9F#7b9
- and a fancy car
- and a tennis court.
      Bm9Bm9
But the guy wasn't quite
        G#7b9
The catch she'd thought she caught.
  C#m9C#m9
He treats her like trash
   BB
Then you know the drill
     E MajorE
Takes his cat and his cash
     A augmentedA
And finds some younger girl
     E MajorE           A augmentedA
So she's left with a stupid corvette
    BB
And an empty swimming pool
     G#7/B#      G#7G#7
Which she fills with regret
C# minorC#m    C#m/B   A augmentedA
Smart girl but kinda dumb...

    F#m7F#m7
And I'd rather be lonely
   F#7F#7
Than sit on my fanny
BB            B7B7
Waiting for my prince to come-

E MajorE    G#7G#7
One day, some day
      C# minorC#m
He'll come sweeping in
  F#F#
And sweep me off my feet
  F# minorF#m
And spend the next 4 decades
E MajorE
Wanting to cheat on me
F#9F#9
Getting less handsom
  BB
And fighting his dragons.

   C minorCm
He'd know what to wear
      Bb majorBb
He'd have a full head of hair
    Eb MajorEb
And his eyes would be brown
Or blue.
AbAb
Or green.
Well, I dont care.
    Eb MajorEb
And his body would be toned with those
AbAb          Bbsus4Bbsus4
Pecks you get at the gym
But he won't spend all of his time at the gym.
     C minorCm
And he'll love reading books,
      Bb majorBb
He'll be an excellent cook,
       Eb MajorEb          AbAb
He'll be good looking but not to aware of his looks.
     Eb MajorEb
He'll be tender but tough
  AbAb
And smart but not smug
   Bb majorBb
And attentive but not fawning
And he'll smell good in the morning
      C minorCm
And he'll dance,
           Bb majorBb
-and like hiking and baking
          Eb MajorEb
And biking I'm not picky
          AbAb
I just ask that he likes me
            Eb MajorEb
And I like him and I'd rather be alone
    AbAb
If the only other option
   Bb majorBb
Is to succumb and settly down
     G7/B
With some condescending clown
       C minorCm        Cm9/Bb
With a great rating from some dating service
   Cm6/A      AbmAbm
Some self professing Mr. Perfect
    C minorCm      Cm9/Bb
Another narcissistic 🏷Legend
    Cm6/A     Ab6Ab6
Made a million out of hedge funds
    Cm7Cm7   Cm7/Bb
Another sexually ineffectual
Cm/A      AbmAbm
Self-obsessing metrosexual
Cm7Cm7     G/BG/B
Pseudo-intellectual
    Cm/BbCm/Bb    Cm/A
Getting drunk and existential.
AbAb               Eb MajorEb
Every time the steelers lose a game
Fm7Fm7       Bb7#5       Bb7Bb7
Thanks - but perhaps another day.

Eb MajorEb    G+G
One day, some day
  C minorCm
My prince may come
   FF
But I won't hold my breath
    F minorFm
There's only divorcees
  Eb MajorEb
And wierdos left
  F9F9
And weird is fine
  Ab/Bb
But not all the time

Eb MajorEb   G+G
One day,some day
  Cm7Cm7
My prince will come
    F9F9
So the fairytale said
F minorFm         Eb MajorEb
30 years later it's still in my head
    F7F7
That if I screw a frog
    Ab/Bb            Eb MajorEb
I will wake up in a four poster bed.
