From Matilda the Musical Lyrics from matilda-lyrics.x10.mx Chords from the offical piano/vocal song book F Jack and Jill went up the hill to C/E fetch a pail of water, so they say Bb the subsequent fall was inevitable Bbm/Db They never stood a chance they were written that way F Innocent victims C Bb of their story. F Like Romeo and Juliet, 'Twas written in the C stars before they even met Bb That love and fate (and a touch of stupidity) Bbm/Db Would rob them of their hope of living happily. F The endings are often C Bb a little bit gory. F I wonder why they didn't just C Bb change their story. F We're told we have to do what we're C Bb told, but surely Bb Sometimes you have to be C F a little bit naughty. [Chorus:] Bb Just because you find that life's not fair, it F/A Doesn't mean that you just have to grin and bear it. Gm If you always take it on the chin and wear it, F Nothing will change. Bb Even if you're little you can do a lot, you F/A Mustn't let a little thing like 'little' stop you. Gm If you sit around and let them get on top, you C Might as well be saying A7 you think that it's OK, A Dm C And that's not right. Bb C/E F Bb F Cinderella, in the cellar, C Didn't have to do much as far as I could tell. Bb Her Godmother was two thirds fairy. Bb Suddenly her lot was a lot less scary. F But what if you haven't got C Bb a fairy to fix it? Bb Sometimes you have to make C F a little bit of mischief. [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/t/tim-minchin/340465.html ] [Chorus:] Bb Just because you find that life's not fair, it F/A Doesn't mean that you just have to grin and bear it. Gm If you always take it on the chin and wear it, F Nothing will change. Bb Even if you're little you can do a lot, you F/A Mustn't let a little thing like 'little' stop you. Gm If you sit around and let them get on top, you C Might as well be saying A7 you think that it's OK, A Dm C And that's not right. Bb Dm C F And if it's not right, Dm E7 A7 you have to put it right. Dm In the slip of a bolt, there's a tiny revolt. A The seeds of a war in the creak of a floorboard. Dm A storm can begin with the flap of a wing. Bm The tiniest mite packs the mightiest sting. Bb Every day starts with the tick of a clock. F/A All escapes start with the click of a lock. Gm If you're stuck in your story and want to get out, F/A You don't have to cry; you don't have to shout. Bb 'Cause if you're little, you can do a lot, you F/A Mustn't let a little thing like 'little' stop you. Gm If you sit around and let them get on top, you F Won't change a thing. Bb Just because you find that life's not fair, it F/A Doesn't mean that you just have to grin and bear it. Gm If you always take it on the chin and wear it, C You might as well be saying A you think that it's OK. Dm Dm/C And that's not right. Bb Dm C/E And if it's not right, F Dm E7 A7 you have to put it right. Gm But nobody else is gonna C put it right for me. Am7 Nobody but me is gonna D7 change my story. Gm Sometimes you have to be C C F a little bit naughty. Ends on F |
