Shrek 
Db                Gb                  Gb/F  Ebm
I guess I'd be a hero, With sword and armor clashing
       Gb/Bb Ab/C                        Db
Looking semi dashing, A shield within my grip
Db         Db/F  Gb                Gb/F     Ebm 
Or else I'd be a Viking and live a life of daring 
                Gb/Bb     Ab/C               Gb2
While smelling like a herring, upon a Viking ship.
         Db2/F            Gb2                    Fm7 
I'd sail away, I'd see the world, I'd reach the farthest reaches 
Gb2          Db2/F               Gb2      F/A
I'd feel the wind, I'd taste the salt and sea. 
    Bbm    Ab/C      Gb
And maybe storm some beaches. 
Gb2                               Db
That's who I'd be. That's who I'd be. 
Db              Gb                Gb/F    Ebm
Or I could be a poet and write a different story, 
         Gb/Bb     Ab/C                        Db
One that tells of glory, and wipes away the lies 
Db         Db/F       Gb                       Gb/F     Ebm
And to the skies I'd throw it, the stars would do the telling 
               Gb/Bb     Ab/C                              Gb2
The moon would help with spelling, and night would dot the 'I's
 
            Db2/F            Gb2               Fm7 
I'd write a Verse, Recite a joke, with wit and perfect timing. 
Gb2           Db2/F               Gb2      F/A      Bbm   Ab/C      Gb
I'd share my heart, confess the things I yearn, and do it all while rhyming. 
Gb                 
But we all learn. But we all learn.
Db2          Ab2/C    
And Ogre always hides,    
Db2          Ab2/C 
an Ogre's fate is known 
Db2                                       Cm   Bbsus4  Bb
And Ogre always stays in the dark and all alone 
D         D/Gb  G               D/Gb     Em
So yes I'd be a hero, and if my wish was granted
          G/B  A/Db                        D
Life would be enchanted, or so the stories say.
D            D/Gb  G                 D/Gb     Em
Of course I'd be a hero, and I would scale a tower 
            G/B      A/Db                   D
And save a hot-house flower, and carry her away 
G2           D2/Gb            G2                 Gbm
But standing guard would be a beast, I'd somehow over whelm it,
G2         D2/Gb                  G2           Gbm
I'd get the girl, I'd take my breath, and I'd remove my helmet. 
G2             D2/Gb                G2                  Gbm
We'd stand and stare, we'd speak of love, we'd feel the stars ascending 
G             D2/Gb            G2   Gb         
We'd share a kiss, I'd find my destiny
    Bm     A2     G         Bm      A
I'd have a hero's Ending, a perfect happy Ending.
G
That's how it would be
  Em         D/Gb          G
A big bright beautiful world 
A           
But not for me.
Fiona
G2/B      D/A          G         D/Gb         G/B                   A/Db
An ogre always hides. An ogres fate is known. An ogre always stays in the dark
 
Dbm
All Alone  All at the same time 
Shrek
Eb        EB/G    Ab           Eb/G      Fm         Ab/Eb         Bb/D                        Eb
So yes i'd be a hero, and if my wish was granted my life would be enchanted or so the stories say. 
Eb            Eb/G Ab              Eb/G     Fm                         Bb                  Ab2
Of course I'd be a hero and I would scale a tower to save a hot-house flower and carry her away!
               
All
  Cm      Bb/D   Ab2    Cm/G   Fm       Bb2  Bb    Eb  Eb/G  Ab  Eb/G  Fm  Bbsus4  Bb    And then end on Eb
A perfect happy Ending, that's how.... it.. should be!
