D , A, Em, G
--
(D) I've never seen a diamond in the flesh
(A) I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the movies
(Em) And I'm not proud of my address
(G) In a torn-up town, no post-card envy
But every song is like -
(D) Gold teeth, grey goose, trippin' in the bathroom
(A) Bloodstains, ballgowns, trashin' the hotel room.
(C) We don't care
(G) We're driving Cadillacs in our dreams.
But everybody's like-
(D) Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your time piece
(A) Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash.
(C) We don't care
(G) We aren't caught up in your love affair.
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/l/lorde/royals_crd_ver_2.html ]
And we'll never be (D) Royals (royals)
(A) It don't run in our blood
(C) That kinda luxe just ain't for us
(G) We crave a different kind of buzz
Let me be your (D) Ruler (ruler)
(A) You can call me queen bee
(Em) And baby I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule (G)
Let me live that fantasy.
(D) My friends and I – we've cracked the code.
(A) We count our dollars on the train to the party, and everyone
(Em) who knows us knows, that we're fine with
(G)this...We didn't come from money.
(Chorus)
(D) Ooh (A) ooh oh
(C) We're bigger than we ever dreamed,
(G) And I'm in love with being queen.
(D) Ooh (A) ooh oh
(C)Life is great without a care
(G) We aren't caught up in your love affair.
And we'll never be (D) Royals (royals).
(A) It don't run in our blood
(C)That kind of luxe just ain't for us
(G)We crave a different kind of buzz
Let me be your (D) Ruler (ruler)
(A) You can call me queen Bee
(Em) And baby I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule. (G)
Let me live that fantasy.
