                           "PRINCELY GHETTO"

       VERSE 1:

Gm                       Cm
A lesser girl might have just given up 
      D (7 fr.)                    Gm
But I stopped listening to my mind 
    Gm                 Cm
And still I summon the will to chase you 
     D (7 fr.)               Gm
Like you've committed a crime 
Gm     Cm          D (7 fr.)
I just want what's mine 


   Gm                            Cm
So I watched the sun through the dust off my tires 
     D (7 fr.)           Gm
As I sped my way to you 
    Gm                  Cm
And I’ve told myself so many damned lies 
      D (7 fr.)                           Gm
Often times I don't even know what's true 
Gm       Cm   D (7 fr.)
Color my baby blue 


       CHORUS:

        Gm                Cm
And the light spilled out around us 
     Bb              D (7 fr.)
So I wore it like stiletto 
        Gm                Cm
And you shoulda hid but I gotcha kid 
      Bb              Cm
Ain't this a princely ghetto


       VERSE 2:

Gm                 Cm
My fingers on your faded blue jeans 
         D (7 fr.)             Gm
Where my eyes had already been 
Gm                             Cm
You're not too young, don't be scared, nothing's wrong 
         D (7 fr.)            Gm
Did your mama say it's a sin? 
Gm   Cm     D (7 fr.)
Just let me in 


       CHORUS:

        Gm                Cm
And the light spilled out around us 
     Bb              D (7 fr.)
So I wore it like stiletto 
        Gm                Cm
And you shoulda hid but I gotcha kid 
      Bb              Cm
Ain't this a princely ghetto


       VERSE 1 (reprise):

Gm                       Cm
A lesser girl might have just given up 
      D (7 fr.)                    Gm
But I stopped listening to my mind 
    Gm                 Cm
And still I summon the will to chase you 
     D (7 fr.)               Gm
Like you've committed a crime 
Gm     Cm          D (7 fr.)
I just want what's mine 


       CHORUS:

        Gm                Cm
And the light spilled out around us 
     Bb              D (7 fr.)
So I wore it like stiletto 
        Gm                Cm
And you shoulda hid but I gotcha kid 
      Bb              Cm
Ain't this a princely ghetto
