[Intro]
B G#m
A E
[Verse]
B
Little girl at a lonely well
G#m
With the same little tale to tell
A
Feeling trapped by
the walls that hold her
E
Feeling stuck in the story
they've told her
B
Another day where she fades away
G#m
Never daring to disobey
A
So she's dreaming all alone
Bbm D#
Sharing secrets with the stone
[Pre-Chorus]
G#m E
My father told me long ago
B
I braved a bitter storm of snow
C#m7 F#sus4 F#
Is that a girl I'll ever know again?
[Chorus]
D
I'm waiting on a wish
A
Beneath a thousand treetops
Bm
And as the silver sky stops
G
I send a whisper to the water
D
Waiting on a wish
A
Holding out for someday
Bm
Hoping somehow, some way
G
I'll become my father's daughter
D
I close my eyes and see
A
The girl I'm meant to be
Bm
Is she a part of me
Gm
I've yet to find?
D
Wondering, will she appear?
A
Or will I be forever here?
D
Waiting on a wish
[Verse]
B
Little girl by a wild wood
G#m
As she tries to be someone good
A
But in the shadow the kingdom's caught in
E
Somehow, fairness is long forgotten
[Pre-Chorus]
G#m E
So will she rise or bow her head?
B
Will she lead, or just be led?
Is she the girl
Em F#
she always said she'd be?
[Chorus]
D
I'm waiting on a wish
A
Beneath a thousand treetops
Bm
And as the silver sky stops
G
I long to leave the walls behind me
D
Waiting on a wish
A
Holding out for someday
Bm
Hoping somehow, some way
G
There comes a miracle to find me
D
I close my eyes and see
A
The girl I'm meant to be
Bm
Is she a part of me
Gm
I've had to hide?
D
Wondering, will she appear?
A
Or will I spend another year?
Bm
Waiting on a wish
[Bridge]
G
They say all you have to do
D
To make your wish come true is
A
Let it echo, echo, echo, echo
Bm G
Your voice will carry through
D
And bring that dream to you
A
Just like an echo, echo, echo
C
Well, I can hear the
G D
echo loud and clear
N.C. F#m G
But I'm still waiting here
[Instrumental]
G
[Chorus]
D A Bm
Waiting on a wish
G
Beyond a whisper to the water
D
Waiting on a wish
A
Is it almost someday?
Bm
Can I somehow some way
G
Learn to be my father's daughter
D
Someone who could finally start?
F#7 F#
Start speaking with a fearless heart?
Bm
Someone who just might be brave?
E
Someone no one needs to save?
D
Well, I can always dream, but then
A Gm
I wake up and it's me again
[Outro]
D
Waiting on a wish
Bm G Gm
Waiting on a wish
D
Waiting on a wish
