Shrek The Musical - Who Id Be

[Shrek]
G                  C                           Am
I guess I'd be a hero, with sword and armour clashing
             D                            G
Looking semi-dashing, a shield within my grip
                 C                           Am
Or else I'd be a Viking, and live a life of daring
                      D                      G
While smelling like a herring, upon a Viking ship.

Em        C                    G                   D
I'd sail away, I'd see the world, I'd reach the farthest reaches
Em              C                D
I'd feel the wind, I'd taste the salt and sea.
    G     D           C
And maybe storm some beaches.
                C               G
That's who I'd be. That's who I'd be.

Em            C       G                D
An ogre always hides, an ogre's fate is known
Em         C                             D
An ogre always stays in the dark and all alone

G                    C                     Am
So yes, I'd be a hero and if my wish were granted
              D                            G
Life would be enchanted, or so the stories say.
                      C                       Am
Of course I'd be a hero, and I would scale a tower
                     D                      G
To save a hot-house flower, and carry her away

              Em              C                    D
But standing guard would be a beast, I'd somehow overwhelm it,
Em           C                 D            G   D        C
I'd get the girl, I'd take her breath, and I'd remove my helmet.
              Em                C                    D
We'd stand and stare, we'd speak of love, we'd feel the stars ascending
Em           C                D              G      D        C
We'd share a kiss, I'd find my destiny, I'd have a hero's ending,
  G        D     C
a perfect happy ending.
               G
That's how it would be
C               G       D
A big, bright, beautiful world
             G
But not for me.
