[Verse 1]

                         D
I've never seen a diamond in the flesh
            C                                         G
I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the movies
                    D
And I'm not proud of my address,
                   C                            G
In a torn-up town, no postcode envy

                                 D
But every song's like gold teeth, grey goose, trippin' in the bathroom

Blood stains, ball gowns, trashin' the hotel room,
C
We don't care 
G
we're driving Cadillacs in our dreams.
                                D
But everybody's like Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your timepiece.

Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash.
C
We don't care 
G
we aren't caught up in your love affair.

                             D
And we'll never be royals

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.
                       D
Let me be your ruler 

You can call me queen Bee
                C
And baby I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule.
G
Let me live that fantasy.

[Verse 2]

                      D
My friends and I—we've cracked the code.
                    C                                      G
We count our dollars on the train to the party.
                 D
And everyone who knows us knows 
                               C
that we're fine with this,
                                G
We didn't come from money.

                                  D
But every song's like gold teeth, grey goose, trippin' in the bathroom

Blood stains, ball gowns, trashin' the hotel room,
C
We don't care 
G
we're driving Cadillacs in our dreams.
                                D

And baby I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule.
G
Let me live that fantasy.

(One Strum Each)
D      D
Ooh ooh oh
C
We're bigger than we ever dreamed,
G
And I'm in love with being queen.
D      D
Ooh ooh oh

Life is great without a care

We aren't caught up in your love affair.
