Hello everyone--here's a tab of Postmodern Jukebox's cover of Lorde's "Royals", sung by Puddles the Clown: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBmCJEehYtU This version adds more musical flair and a key change to the original piece, so I figured it'd be nice to lay out the chords for my own use and for anyone else who wants to play it. The verses feature alternating Bbs and Fms, but it sounds fine if you just play Bb throughout. Enjoy! Bb Fm Bb Fm I've never seen a diamond in the flesh. Bb Fm Bb Fm I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the movies. Bb Fm Bb Fm And I'm not proud of my address Ab Eb In a torn-up town; no post-code envy. Bb But every song is like gold teeth, grey goose, trippin' in the bathroom, Bb Blood stains, ball-gowns, trashin' the hotel room. Ab Eb We don't care. We're driving Cadillacs in our dreams. Bb But everybody's like Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your timepiece, Bb Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash. Ab Eb Ebm We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair. Bb Dm And we'll never be royals (royals). It don't run in our blood. Fm Eb Ebm That kind of luxe just ain't for us, we crave a different kind of buzz. Bb Dm Let me be your ruler (ruler). You can call me queen bee. Ab And baby I'll rule (no chord) Let me live that fantasy. Bb Fm (x2) Bb Fm Bb Fm My friends and I we've cracked the code. Bb Fm Bb Fm We count our dollars on the train to the party. Bb Fm Bb Fm And everyone who knows us knows Ab We're fine with this; Eb We didn't come for money. Bb But every song is like gold teeth, grey goose, trippin' in the bathroom, Bb Blood stains, ball-gowns, trashin' the hotel room. Ab Eb We don't care. We're driving Cadillacs in our dreams. Bb But everybody's like Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your timepiece, Bb Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash. Ab Eb Ebm We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair. Bb Dm And we'll never be royals (royals). It don't run in our blood. Fm Eb Ebm That kind of luxe just ain't for us, we crave a different kind of buzz. Bb Dm Let me be your ruler (ruler). You can call me queen bee. Ab And baby I'll rule (no chord) Let me live that fantasy. Bb (one strum) Ohh ohh. Bb (one strum) Ohh ohh, Ab G Oh ohhh--I'm bigger than I ever dreamed... C Em And we'll never be royals (royals). It don't run in our blood. Gm F Fm That kind of luxe just ain't for us, we crave a different kind of buzz. C Em Let me be your ruler (ruler). You can call me queen bee. Gm And baby I'll rule...
