A Dustland Fairytale by The Killers

...
A Dustland fairytale beginning
Or just another white trash county kiss
In '61 long brown hair and foolish eyes

He (1)____________ just like you'd want him to
Some kind of slick chrome American Prince
A (2)________ jean serenade
And moon river what you do to me

And I don't believe you
Saw Cinderella in a party dress
But she was looking for a nightgown
I saw the devil wrapping up his hands
He's getting ready for the showdown
I saw the minute that I turned away
I got my money on a palm tonight

Change came in disguise of revelation
Set his soul on fire
She says she (3)____________ knew he'd (4)________ around

And the decades disappear like sinking ships
But we persevere God (5)__________ us hope
But we still fear what we don't know
The mind is poison
Castles in the sky sit stranded vandalized
A drawbridge is closin'
Saw Cinderella in a party dress
But she was looking for a nightgown
I saw the devil wrapping up his hands
He's getting ready for the showdown
I saw the ending when they turned the page
I took my money and I ran away
Straight to the valley of the great divide
Out where the dreams are high
Out where the wind don't blow
Out (6)________ the good girls die
And the sky won't snow
Out here the (7)__________ don't sing
Out here the fields don't grow
Out here the bell don't ring
Out here the (8)________ don't ring

Out here the good girls die
Now Cinderella don't you go to sleep
It's such a bitter (9)________ of refuge
(Oh) don't you (10)________ the kingdom's under siege
And everybody needs you
Is there still magic in the midnight sun
Or did you leave it back in '61?
In the cadence of a young man's eyes
I wouldn't dream so high
