                  Eb
When I was just a little girl,
   Gb
My momma used to tuck me into bed,
          F                   Bbm
And she'd read me a story.
   Db               Ebm           Bb
It always was about a princess in distress
    Ab              Gb
And how a guy would save her
        F           Bbm
And end up with the glory.
    Ebm
I'd lie in bed and think about
    F
The person that I wanted to be,
Gb
Then one day I realized
    F
The fairy tale life wasn’t for me.

[Chorus]
  Bbm                 Ab
I don’t wanna be like Cinderella,
Ebm                     Db
Sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar,
Ebm                     Bb
Waiting for somebody to come and set me free (Come and set me free)
                      Ab
I don’t wanna be like someone waiting
Gb                        Db
For a handsome prince to come and save me
Ebm
On I will survive
F
Unless somebody's on my side
Gb
Don't wanna depend on no one else.
Ab         Bb
I’d rather rescue myself.


    Bbm     Db             Bbm
Someday I'm gonna find Someone
    Gb
Who wants my soul, heart and mind
      Ebm           F            Bbm
Who's not afraid to show that he loves me
                                 Gb
Somebody who will understand I'm happy just the way I am
           Db                 Bbm
Don't need nobody taking care of me
  Ebm                           F
I will be there for him just as strong as he will be there for me
Gb                             F
When i give myself then it has got to be an equal thing


[Chorus]

      Db
I can slay my own dragons.
Ab     Fm    Db
 I can dream my own dreams.
Gb                    Ab       Db
 My knight in shining armor is me.
   F                Bbm
So I'm gonna set me free.

  Bbm                 Ab
I don’t wanna be like Cinderella,
Ebm                     Db
Sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar,
Ebm                     Bb
Waiting for somebody to come and set me free (Come and set me free)
                      Ab
I don’t wanna be like someone waiting
Gb                        Db
For a handsome prince to come and save me
Ebm
On I will survive

Unless somebody's on my side[x2]
