                           "PRINCELY GHETTO"

       VERSE 1:

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


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


       CHORUS:

        Gm                Cm
And the light spilled out around us 
     Bb              D(7)
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)             Gm
Where my eyes had already been 
Gm                             Cm
You're not too young, don't be scared, nothing's wrong 
         D(7)            Gm
Did your mama say it's a sin? 
Gm   Cm     D(7)
Just let me in 


       CHORUS:

        Gm                Cm
And the light spilled out around us 
     Bb              D(7)
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)                    Gm
But I stopped listening to my mind 
    Gm                 Cm
And still I summon the will to chase you 
     D(7)               Gm
Like you've committed a crime 
Gm     Cm          D(7)
I just want what's mine 


       CHORUS:

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