lyrics

I WON’T BE YOUR HEROINE

DADGAD

When it’s time to leave false dreams up in the tower
Let your hair down for no-one but yourself
When it’s time to leave your prince down there with dragon
Let him fight for you; you’ll be out for the night

Saying I won’t be your heroine
I am sorry… no wait, I’m not.

When it’s time to wake to the kisses of the morning
Let it come to you, alone in the light.
When it’s time to throw that toad back in the water
Let him go into the cold (he was always just a toad)

Tell him I won’t be your heroine
(your addiction)
I am sorry… no wait, I’m not.
For you are looking for the woman that I see the mirror
Nothing more.

Instrumental 1 - Verse chords modified

When the clock strikes 12 you’ll be smashing your glass slippers on the dance floor
You’ll be making pumpkin soup

Singing I won’t be your heroine
Singing I won’t be your heroine <verse hook melody>
Singing I won’t be your heroine: Your addiction
I am more than my reflection

Instrumental 2 - Chorus chords modified

When it’s time to wake to the kisses of the morning
Let it come to you, alone in the light.
