No Capo

Intro:
C#

Verse:
C#
 She runs to the wishing well
                         F#
 With her pocket full of dreams

 One after the other
Bbm
 Throws them all into the deep
B
 Throws them all into the deep

C#
 The fever's in her veins
                      F#
 Every moment she's awake

 Secretly she listens
Bbm                      B
 Waiting for the wind to change



Pre Chorus:
C#
Desperate to break away
   Ebm
To live what she believes
    Bbm
But she's afraid to try
       F#
'Cause no one's ready for the girl

C#
Desperate to find a world
      Ebm
Where she can hold her own
    Bbm
But she's afraid to try
       B
'Cause no one's ready for the girl
C#
No one's ready for the girl



Chorus:
Ebm C# F#

Held back by Reputation
     B                            Ebm C# F#
Just waiting for the time to pass
        B
Brought down by expectation 
Ebm C#        F#
But she's not gonna fight
       B
'Cause no one's ready for the girl 


Interlude:
C#


Verse:
C#
 Her life's not a wonderland
                         F#
 But it's all she's ever known

 Secretly she wishes
Bbm                     B
 There will be another dawn



Pre Chorus:
C#
Desperate to break away
   Ebm
To live what she believes
    Bbm
But she's afraid to try
       F#
'Cause no one's ready for the girl

     C#
It's hard to make a stand
Ebm
Hanging from a string
    Bbm
But she's afraid to try
       B
'Cause no one's ready for the girl
C#
No one's ready for the girl

Bridge:
B                 Ebm
 She might be too much

(No one's ready for the girl)
B              Ebm
 Oh, but never enough

No one really knows, oh
Ebm    F#     B
No one really knows
      Ebm    F#      B         
She's living someone else's life
