Verse 1
A dustland [D]fairytale [D]beginning, just another [A]white trash county [G]kiss.

A blue jean serenade, Moon River, what you do to me.
But [E]I don't believe you.[E]

She says she always [Gmaj7/B]knew he'd [G]come [D]around.
And the [D]decades disappear like [D/C#]sinking [Bm]ships that we [Bm]persevere.
God [A]gives us [G]hope, but we still [Bm]fear, [G]we don't [D]know, the mind is poison.
[Bm] Castles in the [Bm]sky sit stranded, [G]vandalised.[G]
The [E]drawbridge is closing.[E]

[D]away
Straight to the [D/F#]valley of the great [A]divide.
Middle Eight
[A] Out where the dreams all [D]hide, out where the [A]wind don't [G]blow.
[G] Out here the [G/F#]good girls [Bm]die, [Bm] and the [A]sky won't [D]snow.
[D] Out here the [A]bird [G]don't [G]sing, out here the [A]field don't [G]grow.
[G] Out here the [A/C#]bell don't [Bm]ring,[B/Eb] out here the bell don't [E]ring.[E7]
[G] [G] Out here the good girls [D/A]die.
Outro-Chorus
Now [D/A]Cinderella don't you go to [Gmaj7/B]sleep, it's such a [Gmaj7/B]bitter form of refuge.
[A/C#] Oh don't you know the kingdom's under [D/A]siege? And [D/F#]everybody needs [G]you.
Is there still [D/F#]magic in the [Bm/Bb]midnight [Bm]sun? Or did you [A/C#]leave it back in
[D]'Sixty-One?
In the [D/F#]cadence of a young man's [G]eyes, and where the [A]dreams all [D]hide.
[D] [D] [D] [D]
