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
