"PRINCELY GHETTO"
[VERSE 1]
GmA lesser girl might have Cmjust given up
But I D(7)stopped listening to my Gmmind
And Gmstill I summon the Cmwill to chase you
Like D(7)you've committed a Gmcrime
GmI just Cmwant what's D(7)mine
So GmI watched the sun through the Cmdust off my tires
As I D(7)sped my way to Gmyou
And GmI’ve told myself so Cmmany damned lies
Often D(7)times I don't even know what's Gmtrue
GmColor my Cmbaby D(7)blue
[CHORUS]
And the Gmlight spilled out Cmaround us
So I Bbwore it like stiD(7)letto
And you Gmshoulda hid but I Cmgotcha kid
Ain't Bbthis a princely Cmghetto
[VERSE 2]
GmMy fingers on your Cmfaded blue jeans
Where my D(7)eyes had already Gmbeen
GmYou're not too young, don't be Cmscared, nothing's wrong
Did your D(7)mama say it's a Gmsin?
GmJust Cmlet me D(7)in
[CHORUS]
And the Gmlight spilled out Cmaround us
So I Bbwore it like stiD(7)letto
And you Gmshoulda hid but I Cmgotcha kid
Ain't Bbthis a princely Cmghetto
[VERSE 1]
reprise
GmA lesser girl might have Cmjust given up
But I D(7)stopped listening to my Gmmind
And Gmstill I summon the Cmwill to chase you
Like D(7)you've committed a Gmcrime
GmI just Cmwant what's D(7)mine
[CHORUS]
And the Gmlight spilled out Cmaround us
So I Bbwore it like stiD(7)letto
And you Gmshoulda hid but I Cmgotcha kid
Ain't Bbthis a princely Cmghetto
