A5                         G5
Wake me with kisses in the afternoon
E5                                       A5
The butler knows any time you arrive is never too soon
         D5                         G5
He knows just where you are by the sound of your car
         F5                    C5               E5
He'll be waiting there by the spiral stair

A5                                 G5
You could drive me crazy with your unkempt hair
E5                                            A5
You don't know what a comb is and frankly, I don't really care
              D5                                      G5
'Cause you're fresh and you're wild and you make the butler smile
   F5                        C5
By bringing me flowers like meteor showers
         D5                           E5
Treating me like a queen, though I'm only nineteen
        F5                               C5
Which reminds me of something that I've recently seen
         Bb5                 F5
It was a look in the eye of Lady Di

C5                                                           A5
As she stood on the balcony knowing the last fantasy of the century 
           G5
Was in her long white veil
E5                                        A5
Maybe she would rather have you than the Prince of Wales
            D5                                G5
And all the jewels and the crown and all the villages and towns 
     F5                   C5             E5
That line the sea of the monarchy

A5                              G5
And while I cut the roses, what about Lady Di?
E5                                   A5
She's a child of the 80's just like you and like I
         D5                      G5
Think of all of the things that she'll never do
      F5                         C5                        E5
See a rock and roll show, get a heart-shaped tattoo

A5                            G5
Look at all the music that I make with you
E5                                                A5
Let's take a walk on the wild side, baby, I'm in love with you
D5                           G5
I will leave my Dior by the cabinet door
         F5                       C5
And I'll leave my bouquet on the breakfast tray
      F5                           C5                  E5
Let's go for a sail just like the Prince of Wales

A5                              G5
And did he ever love her in the afternoon?
E5                                        A5  
Was the kiss that she gave him in public just a little too soon?
Bb5                           F5
There's a tear in the eye of Lady Di

C5
As she looks from the balcony knowing the last fantasy of the 
A5          G5
Century is probably a lie
E5                                          A5
My heart goes out to you, Princess, lovely Lady Di
           D5                         G5
'Cause for all that it seems, here I stand in my jeans
        F5                    C5
For whatever it means, it is I who am queen.
