“Royals” is a really catchy tune which I first came across being covered by Puddles Pity Party / PostModern Jukebox and wanted to be able to play it as soon as I heard it 🙂 I hope you enjoy playing the letter notes below!
A A – A A A ^D-^D ^C ^C A
I’ve never seen a diamond in the flesh
A A A ^D ^D ^C-^C A
I cut my teeth on wedding rings

In the movies

No postcode envy ~ ~

But every song’s like…

Gold teeth, Grey Goose, tripping in the bathroom

Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your timepiece
