Royals - Lorde
Verse 1 - Ukes lightly:
[D] I've never seen a diamond in the flesh
[D] I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the movies
[D] And I'm not proud of my address in the torn up town
[D] No postcode envy
[Pre-Chorus]
But every song's like [D] gold teeth, grey goose, trippin' in the bathroom
Blood stains, ballgowns, trashin' the hotel room
[C] We don't care - we're driving [G] Cadillacs in our dreams
But everybody's like [D] cristal, Mayback, diamonds on your timepiece
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
[C] We don't care - we aren't [G*] caught up in your love affair
|[Chorus]
|And we'll never be [D] royals (royals) - It don't run in our blood
|That kind of [C] lux just ain't for us
|We crave a [G] different kind of buzz
|Let me be your [D] ruler (ruler) - you can call me Queen Bee
|And baby I'll [C] rule, (I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule) [G*]
|Let me live that fantasy [D]
Verse 2 - Ukes lightly:
[D] My friends and I we've cracked the code
[D] We count our dollars on the train to the party
[D] And every one who knows us knows that we're fine with this
[D] We didn't come from money
[Pre-Chorus]
But every song's like [D] gold teeth, grey goose, trippin' in the bathroom
Blood stains, ballgowns, trashin' the hotel room
[C] We don't care - we're driving [G] Cadillacs in our dreams
But everybody's like [D] cristal, Mayback, diamonds on your timepiece
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
[C] We don't care - we aren't [G*] caught up in your love affair
|[Chorus]
|And we'll never be [D] royals (royals) - It don't run in our blood
|That kind of [C] lux just ain't for us
|We crave a [G] different kind of buzz
|Let me be your [D] ruler (ruler) - you can call me Queen Bee
|And baby I'll [C] rule, (I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule) [G*]
|Let me live that fantasy
