[INTRO]
[F#m] [C#m] [D] [A] x4

[VERSE]
[F#m]She lives in a fa[C#m]iryt[D]ale
[A]Somewhere too far for us to find
[F#m]Forgotten the tast[C#m]e and[D] smell
[A]Of a world that she's left behind
[F#m]It's [C#m]all a[D]bout the exp[A]osure
The len[E]s I told her
[F#m]The angles are all [C#m]wron[D]g now
She's ripping[A] wings off of butterflies

[PRECHORUS]
[E]Keep your fee[F#m]t on t[A]he ground
[E]When your head i[F#m]s in [A]the clouds

[CHORUS]
[A]Go get your shovel
And we'[C#m]ll dig a deep hole
To bur[F#m]y the castle
[E]Bury the castle
(repeat)

(no guitar)
Ba da ba ba da ba ba da

Verse (same chords)
Now one day he found her crying
Coiled up on the dirty ground
Her prince finally came to save her
And the rest you can figure out
But it was a trick and the clock struck twelve
Well make sure
To build your home brick by boring brick
Or the wolf's gonna blow it down

[PRECHORUS]

[CHORUS]

[BRIDGE]
This is n[A]ot real
And you can't hold it in your[E] hand
Can't feel it with your[F#m] heart
And I w[E]on't believe it
But if it's true y[A]ou can see it with your[E] eyes
Even in[F#m] the dark
Then that'[E]s where I want to be, yeah

[CHORUS]
