Bb             Eb          Ab9   Ab  Eb
It was one of those great stories
         Bb        Eb      Ab9 Ab Eb
That you can't put down at night
Bb       Eb           Ab9  Ab  Eb        Bb     Eb         Ab9  Ab  Eb
The hero knew what he had to   do and he wasn't afraid to fight
Bb       Eb         Ab9 Ab  Eb               Bb Eb      Ab9 Ab  Eb
Villain goes to ja--------- il     while the hero goes free
Bb    Eb       Ab9   Ab  Eb         Bb  Eb  Ab9 Ab  Eb
I     wish  it were that simple for me
         Eb    Bb       Eb        Ab     Eb       Bb       Eb
And the reason that she loves him is the reason I love him too
    Eb       Bb       Ab       Eb           Bb
And he never wondered what was right or wrong
        Ab            Bb   Eb Ab9 Ab  Eb
He just knew  he just knew
Bb          Eb     Ab9  Ab   Eb     Bb    Eb Ab9 Ab Eb
Shadows and shade  mix together  at dawn
           Bb   Eb     Ab9   Ab   Eb           Bb   Eb Ab9 Ab Eb
But by the time you    catch them simplicities gone
      Bb    Eb      Ab9  Ab Eb     Bb   Eb       Ab9 Ab Eb
So we sort thru the pieces         my friends and I
Bb        Eb     Ab9  Ab   Eb          Bb    Eb     Ab9 Ab Eb
Searchng thru the darkness to find the breaks in the sky
         Eb    Bb       Eb        Ab     Eb       Bb       Eb
And the reason that she loves him is the reason I love him too
    Eb       Bb       Ab       Eb           Bb
And he never wondered what was right or wrong
        Ab            Bb   Eb Ab9 Ab  Eb
He just knew  he just knew
Eb            Ebsus/Db  Eb   Ebsus/Db
And we wonder yes we    wonder
Eb             Ebsus.Db       Eb       Ebsus/Db
How do you make sense of      this
Eb  Ebsus/Db Eb    Ebsus/Db             Ab            Bb
The hero     kills the  maiden with his kiss with his kiss
