Verse:
Hey, [G] once upon a time in this nursery rhyme I [D]held her.
Held her in my arms
Dazzled by her charms
I [G]wanted her.
I whispered in her ear, "Girl I love you dear, [D} Darlin'
Will you be my Queen and I will be your Prince [G]Charmin'?
Verse:
We held each other tight and danced away the night [D]together
The fact that she was rich and I was poor
Did not [G]matter
But we're from different worlds,
Gotta face it Girl, [D] Darlin'!
You'll never be my Queen, I'll never be your Prince [G]Charmin'!
Chorus:
[G] No there [C] ain't no happy ending, [G]in this nursery rhyme
[C]She went her way and [G] I went [D]mine.
No, [G] dreams don't all come true, like we want 'em to, [D] Darlin'.
Someone's gotta win, someone's gotta lose, [G] ALWAYS.
Verse:
T'was never meant to be, this love t'ween you and me [D} Darlin'
You'll never be my Queen, I'll never be your Prince [G]Charmin'!
