A                      Bm
 I believe in all those stars
E                         A
 That keep shining in the misty
 nights
                       Bm
They don’t need nobody’s eyes
G                   A
 To irradiate their light

[Verse 2]
A                  G
 I believe in fairytales
                       A
Where the princess has won
his heart
                        G
And she tells you to be brave
                           A
And build a kingdom by yourself
F#m                C#m
Oh, and that’s the power
of the will
E              B
Oh, it’s not impossible
D              A
Hold me tight, hold me tight,
  G    E
tonight
