Frog Prince by Keane
Frog Prince
Intro: F A# (Slight improvisation. Easy to figure out.)
F Bb
An old fairytale told me
F Bb
The simple heart will be prized again
F Bb
A toad will be our king
F Bb
And ugly ogres are heroes
C (open)
Then you'll shake
Your fist at the sky
"Oh why did I rely
Bb7 Gm7 C
On fashions and small fry?"
F Bb
All promises broken
F Bb
Feed your people or lose your throne
F Bb
And forfeit your whole kingdom
F Bb C(open)
I'd sooner lose it than still live in it alone
You were our golden child
But the gentle and the mild
Bb7 Gm7 C
Inherit the earth, while
F Gm7 Dm
Your prince's crown
Bb7 F
Cracks and falls down
Gm7 C Bb
Your castle hollow and cold
F Gm7 Dm
You've wandered so far
Bb7 F
From the person you are
Gm7 C Bb
Let go brother, let go
Gm7 C Bb Bb into bridge
Cos now we all know
Bridge (all open except Bb, Gm7):
Dm C Am Bb
Soon, someone will put a spell on you
Dm C Am Bb Gm7
Perfume, treasure, sorcery, every trick they know
C
You will lie in a deep sleep
Bb (C)
That's when
F Gm7 Dm
Your prince's crown
Bb7 F
Cracks and falls down
Gm7 C Bb
Your castle hollow and cold
F Gm7 Dm
You've wandered so far
Bb7 F
From the person you are
Gm7 C Bb
Let go brother, let go
Gm7 C F
Cos now we all know
* Repeat until fade out.

version 6
Tuning: E A D G B E
Capo: 5th fret
Key: F
* The optional strumming pattern I added is played throughout the entire song unless a chord is
displayed with an asterisk. That's where it briefly changes to 1/8 downstrums.
* The ending is actually played on piano but for accoustic purposes I thought it could be a nice melody
to end the song with. It's not entirely accurate but it gets close and it's quite easy to play.
