Did you grow up [Gm]lonesome and [Bb]one of a [Eb]kind?
Were your [Gm]records all you had to [Bb]pass the [Eb]time?
Or maybe you were [Gm]taken by the mysteries of [Bb]New [Eb]Orlenans?
Or the [Gm]uptight, rowdy girls of [Bb]Lower [Eb]Chelsea?

And we're hustling [Gm]under but we [Bb]live in the [Eb]city
And we keep it [Gm]down when we [Bb]take a [Eb]beating

And if you find a [Gm]good man, don't [F]take him [Eb]home

When you're [Bb]working full-time
Ebmaj7 (xx1333) Bb Ebmaj7
And spending all of your nights, dancing like you did
While the [Bb]gravity hangs all over [Ebmaj7]some boys you had
[Bb]She'll still remain the [Ebmaj7]Queen of Lower Chelsea

Did you grow up a [Gm]good girl, you [Bb]daddy's [Eb]pride?
Did you make all the [Gm]right moves, take all the right drugs [Bb]right on [Eb]time?
American [Gm]girls, [Bb]they want the [Eb]whole world
They want [Gm]every last little in [Bb]New York [Eb]City
