F#m             C#m   D
She lives in a fairy tale
 A
Somewhere too far for us to find
F#m            C#m        D
Forgotten the taste and smell
A
Of a world that she's left behind
F#m       C#m    D    A
It's all about the exposure the lens I told her
F#m            C#m        D
The angles are all wrong now
       A
She's ripping wings off of butterflies
E                           F#m D
Keep your feet on the ground
E                            F#m D
When your head's in the clouds

Chorus:
      A
Well go get your shovel
    C#m
And we'll dig a deep hole
    F#m
To bury the castle,
 E
bury the castle
      A
Well go get your shovel
    C#m
And we'll dig a deep hole
   F#m
To bury the castle,
 E
bury the castle

So 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

Chorus

Bm
well you built up a world of magic
D
Because your real life is tragic
A                               E
Yeah you built up a world of magic
              A
well If it's not real
You can't hold it in your hands
C#m                              F#m
You can't feel it with your heart
    E
and I won't believe it

             A
But if it's true then
You can see it with your eyes
C#m             F#m
Even in the dark
             E
And that's where I want to be, yeah
