Making me the king, making me the queen

             C                                  
'Cause am I supposed to swing swords 
                                 Am

Mind is a castle and my thoughts are the moat

Call you on the phone "don't go, you're my only friend"

Big green trees and my legs in the lotus

Try so hard to live in the moment 
C
Hell yeah I gotta own it

Gotta live with no regrets

'Cause I've seen pain and I'm never going back
G
So hard not to want the power or the cash
