Song: The Frog Prince
Band: Keane
Album: Under the Iron Sea (2006)
Tabbed By: Adrian Calinescu (foo *at* snobu *dot* org)

*NOTE*
Standard tuning. 
All bar chords unless otherwise specified.


Intro: F A# (Slight improvisation. Easy to figure out.)

F                    A#
An old fairytale told me
    F                      A#
The simple heart will be prized again
   F                 A#
A toad will be our king
    F                A#
And ugly ogres are heroes

              C (open)
Then you'll shake

Your fist at the sky

"Oh why did I rely
     A#7       Gm7     C
On fashions and small fry?"


F              A#
All promises broken
  F                  A#
Feed your people or lose your throne
    F                  A#
And forfeit your whole kingdom
   F                       A#                 C(open)
I'd sooner lose it than still live in it alone
                    
You were our golden child

But the gentle and the mild
   A#7        Gm7    C
Inherit the earth, while


F     Gm7       Dm
Your prince's crown
A#7               F
Cracks and falls down
 Gm7        C          A#
Your castle hollow and cold
     F      Gm7   Dm
You've wandered so far
A#7                F
From the person you are
Gm7      C           A#
Let go brother, let go
  Gm7      C    A#    A# into bridge
Cos now we all know


Bridge (all open except A#, Gm7):

Dm C    Am	           A#
Soon, someone will put a spell on you
Dm  C      Am                 A#              Gm7
Perfume, treasure, sorcery, every trick they know
		   C
You will lie in a deep sleep
  A#     (C)
That's when


F     Gm7       Dm
Your prince's crown
A#7               F
Cracks and falls down
 Gm7        C          A#
Your castle hollow and cold
      F      Gm7  Dm
You've wandered so far
A#7                F
From the person you are
Gm7      C           A#
Let go brother, let go
  Gm7      C     F  
Cos now we all know

* Repeat until fade out.
