I came to see her daddy for sit down man to man
C                   D                G
It wasn't any secret i'd be asking for her hand
                      Am                 D                  G                         C
I guess that's why he left me waiting in the living room by myself
            Am               G                    D
with at least a dozen pictures of her sitting on a shelf

          C             G
She was playing Cinderella
          C             G
She was riding her first bike
Am                 D                C             G
Bouncing on the bed and looking for a pillow fight
Bm                            C                    Bm              C
Running through the sprinkler with a big popsicle grin
D                        Gsus2   D                  Gsus2
Dancing with her dad,      looking up at him
          Am                   D
In her eyes i'm Prince Charming
        G                   C
But to him i'm just some fella
Am              D              C           G  C G
riding in and stealing Cinderella

    C                                 D                      G
I leaned in towards those pictures to get a better look at one
            C                      D                            G             
When I heard a voice behind me say "Now, ain't she something, son?"
           Am                   D                 G                       C
I said "Yes, she quite a woman" and he just stared at me 
           Am             G                D 
Then I realized that in his eyes she would always be

C                      G 
Playing Cinderella
C                       G
Riding her first bike

But to him i'm just some fella riding in and stealing Cinderella

D                                G
He slapped me on the shoulder 
             C
Then he called her in the room
            D                      Em 
When she threw her arms around him
                   Am      G/B    C
That's when I could see it too

             C                   G
She was Playing Cinderella
C                     G
Riding her first bike

Running through the sprinkler with a big popsicle grin

Dancing with her dad,    looking up at him
     Am                D
If he gives me a hard time
G                       C
I can't blame the fella
Am                       D                    C       G
I'm the one who's stealing Cinderella
