Verse:
G
I've told you almost every bedtime story
                                      D7
And you've heard almost every nursery rhyme
     C
So tonight before you'll go to sleep
    G                  E7
And pray the Lord your soul to keep
       A7               D7             G
Here's mommy's favorite story one more time


Once upon a time there was a castle
                                    D7
And in this castle lived a king and queen
       C
And it came to pass they both were blessed
G             E7
By one little blue eyed princess
A7                                        D7
With the softest golden curls you've ever seen

G
But then one day he met this pretty lady
                                    D7
And she had lots of pretty words to say
    C
And this part makes your mommy sad
     G             E7
Cause  oh what big eyes she had
       A7                 D7          G
And she took his hand and led him far away

Verse:
C                 D7            G
Still it's just another bedtime story
    D7                                G
But telling it brings teardrops to my eyes
C            D7             G
Just another pretty bedtime story
             D7                G
So please forgive mommy if she cries


Then it came to pass the king grew lonely
                                   D7
And the pretty lady wasn't all she seemed
   C
He realized that he was wrong
    G                E7
And started his long journey home
       A7                                 D7
For he missed his little princess and his queen

G
Then he was back and safe inside his castle
                                        D7
And tears of joy came pouring down like rain
C
Then the castle rang with laughter
G                E7
They lived happy ever after
A7               D7          G
Knowing he would never leave again
