Royals Lorde
<i></i>There are different ways to play this song. Some people only play the chorus and
not the verses. Another way is to strum the D only for the verses. I played that
way, but I prefer this way better.
Verse 1
[D]I've never seen a diamond in the flesh
I cut my tee[C]th on wedding rings in the[G] movies
And I'm not proud o[D]f my address - in the torn u[C]p town
No postcode e[G]nvy
Chorus
[D]But every song's like: gold teeth, grey goose, trippin' in the bathroom
Blood stains, ballgowns, trashin' the hotel room
[C]We don't care - we're driving Cadillacs in o[G]ur dreams
But everybody's like Cristal, Ma[D]yback, diamonds on your timepiece
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
[C]We don't care - we aren't caught up in[G] your love affair
And we'll never be royals [D]- It don't run in our blood
That kind of lux [C]just ain't for us
We crave a differ[G]ent kind of buzz
Let me be your ruler -[D] you can call me Queen Bee
And baby I'll rule[C], I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule
[G]Let me live that fa[D]ntasy
Verse 2
[D]My friends and I we've cracked the code
We count our dolla[C]rs on the train to the[G] party
And everyone w[D]ho knows us knows that we're fine with [C]this
We didn't come from [G]money
Chorus
[D]But every song's like: gold teeth, grey goose, trippin' in the bathroom
Blood stains, ballgowns, trashin' the hotel room
[C]We don't care - we're driving Cadillacs in o[G]ur dreams
But everybody's like Cristal, Ma[D]yback, diamonds on your timepiece
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
[C]We don't care - we aren't caught up in[G] your love affair
And we'll never be royals -[D] It don't run in our blood
That kind of lux [C]just ain't for us
We crave a differ[G]ent kind of buzz
Let me be your ruler -[D] you can call me Queen Bee
And baby I'll rule[C], I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule
[G]Let me live that f[D]antasy
[D]oh ooh oh ohh
We're big[C]ger than we ever dreamed
And I'm in love[G] with being queen (king)
[D]oh ooh oh ohh
[C]Life's a game without a care
We aren't caug[G]ht up in your love affair
And we'll never be royals [D]- It don't run in our blood
That kind of lux [C]just ain't for us
We crave a differ[G]ent kind of buzz
Let me be your ruler -[D] you can call me Queen Bee
And baby I'll rule[C], I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule
[G]Let me live that fantasy[D]
