Royals

I've never seen a diamond in the flesh.

I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the movies.

And I'm not proud of my address.

In the tornup town,

We no postcode envy.

But ev'ry song's like:

gold teeth, Grey Goose, trippin' in the bathroom,

blood stains, ballgowns, trashin' the hotel room.

(F)We don't care, we're drivin' (C)Cadillacs in our dreams.

But ev'rybody's like:

(G)Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your timepiece,

jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash.

(F)We don't care, we aren't (C)caught up in your love affair.

And we'll never be (G)royals, (royals).

It don't run in our blood.

That kind of (F)luxe just ain't for us.

We crave a (C)diff'rent kind of buzz.

Let me be your (G)ruler, (ruler).

You can call me queen bee and,

baby, I'll (F)rule, I'll rule, I'll rule,

I'll rule.

(C)Let me live that fantasy.

(G)My friends and I, we've cracked the code.

We count our dollars on the train to the party.

And ev'ryone who knows us knows

that we're fine with this.

We didn't from money.

But ev'ry song's like:

gold teeth, Grey Goose, trippin' in the bathroom,

blood stains, ballgowns, trashin' the hotel room.

(F)We don't care, we're drivin' (C)Cadillacs in our dreams.

But ev'rybody's like:

(G)Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your timepiece,

jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash.

(F)We don't care, we aren't (C)caught up in your love affair.

And we'll never be (G)royals, (royals).

It don't run in our blood.

That kind of (F)luxe just ain't for us.

We crave a (C)diff'rent kind of buzz.

Let me be your (G)ruler, (ruler).
