E                G                A                   B
When will the princess figure it out she ain't worth saving? 
E          G                    A
Heavy the head that bears the crown
          B        A          B
Of my mistaken, apathy for sympathy
             E             B       A         B
I was never good enough to be anything but remedy
                E                  B
To all of your constant pressing needs
       A       B
And I never learned, so

[Chorus]
C#m           E              A               B
I painted a picture of the things I wanted most 
C#m               E             A                   B              
To color in the darker side of all my brightest hopes 
F#m             B                     G#       C#m
But there's a monster standing where you should be
                   A
So I'll paint you wings 
                  B
Now I'll set you free 

C#m   E   A   B

[Verse 2]
E        G                    A                 B
I was a pawn in all of your plans, you kept me busy
E          G                 A                     
Locked behind your chamber doors when you felt frisky
       A              B
Until you got sick of me
             E             B       A          B
I was never good enough to be anything but remedy
                 E                 B
To all of your constant pressing needs
        A      B
And I never learned, so

[Chorus]
C#m           E              A               B
I painted a picture of the things I wanted most 
C#m               E             A                  B
To color in the darker side of all my brightest hopes
F#m            B                     G#        C#m
But there's a monster standing where you should be
                    A
So I'll paint you wings 
                  B
Now I'll set you free 

[Bridge]
E               G                 A                     B
When will the princess figure it out she ain't worth saving?
E               G             A              B
When will the world get over all her misbehaving
         A     B
Will we ever learn? 

[Chorus]
C#m           E              A               B
I painted a picture of the things I wanted most 
C#m               E             A                  B             
To color in the darker side of all my brightest hopes 
F#m            B                      G#        C#m
But there's a monster standing where you should be
                    A
So I'll paint you wings 
                   B
Now I'll set you free 

C#m           E              A               B
I painted a picture of the things I wanted most 
C#m               E             A                  B                
To color in the darker side of all my brightest hopes 
F#m            B                      G#        C#m
But there's a monster standing where you should be
                    A
So I'll paint you wings 
                   B 
Now I'll set you free
