Before you met me
4 -3 4 -4 4 5 4
I was a fairy princess
4 -3 5 -3 4 -3 5
I caught frogs and called them prince
-3 4 -34 -33
And made myself a queen
3 5 -4 -4 4 4 -4 4 5 -4 4
Before you knew me I’d traveled ’round the world
-34 4 5 4
I slept in castles
-3 4 4 5
And fell in love
4 -3 4 -3 4 -3 3
Because I was taught to dream
4 -3 4 4 5 4 -3 4 -3 4 4
I found mayonnaise bottles and poked holes on top
-3 4 -3 4 -3 3
To capture Tinker Bell
3 4 -3 4 5 4 4 4 5 5 5
And they were just fireflies to the untrained eye
-4 -44 -44 3
But I could always tell
6 5 4 4 -3 4 4
I believe in fairy tales
4 6 4 4
And dreamer’s dreams
4 -3 4 4
Like bed-sheet sails
4 6 -5-5 5 -55 -4
And I believe in Peter Pan
4 6 4 4 44 -5 5 5 4 -4 -3
And miracles, anything I can to get by
3 5-4 4
And fireflies
3 5 -4-4 4 4 -4 4 5 -44
Before I grew up I saw you on a cloud
-34 4 -35 -3 4 5
I could bless myself in your name
-3 4 -3 4 -3 3
And pat you on your wings
3 5 -4-4 4 4 -5 5 5 4 -4 4
Before I grew up I heard you whisper so loud
4 4 5 4 -3 4 5
Life is hard and so is love
4 -34 -3 4 -3 3
Child, believe in all these things

I found mayonnaise bottles and poked holes on top
