My quest to tab "Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper" continues! Here's 
'To be a princess', yet another duet (like everything else in this movie!), but this time:
with trickier chords... good luck!

Leave the parsley on your plate
        
And be charmin

g but detached
And yet amused

To be a prince

Glide!

Part 2:

Part 1:
       
Doors close
              
And the chemis

She's like a r

That's forever in bloom!

Part 1:                                     (Part 2:)

  (Never ever

)

             
There's a time
