G 
To be a princess

Is to know which spoon to use 
G 
To be a princess 
            F                 G 
is to own a thousand pairs of shoes 
   Gm               F 
To maintain a regal gait     
Leave the parsley on your plate 
        D 
And be charming but detached 
And yet amused 
G 
To be a princess 
      F         G 
Is to never be confused 

G             D 
Do a plié and never fall

Don't ever stray from protocol 
All through the day 
        D 
There's just one way 
    Em       D 
You must behave 
G                   D 
Do keep a grip and never crack 
Am                   G 
Stiff upper lip and arch the back 
Bend from above 
     D                G 
And always wear your gloves 
     D 
And wave 

C 
Shoulders back and 
Tummy in and 
G 
Pinky out and 
Lift the chin and 
C                                  G 
Slowly turn the head from side to side

Breathing gently 
Stepping lightly

Smile brightly 
Nod politely

Never show a thing you feel inside 
Glide!

Sit for a portrait, never squirm 
Sleep on a mattress extra firm 
              D 
Speak and be clever 
Never at a loss for words 
G                D 
Curtsy to every count and lord 
Am                    G 
Learn how to play the harpsichord 
                    D                  C 
Sing lullabies and always harmonize in thirds 

BOTH:

Thirds, thirds 

Part 1: 
D                      G 
And She has beautiful eyes 
              D 
Your spirits rise      G 
When she walks in the room 

Part 2: 
G 
I see... ;) 

Part 1: 
       C 
Doors close 
                   G 
And the chemistry grows

She's like a rose 
That's forever in bloom!

Take a dainty sip                           (Never ever turn your back) 

G                   D                 Em   D 
There's a time and place and way for everything
