    • Verse 1
    I've 
    never 
    seen 
    a 
    diamond 
    in 
    the 
    flesh 

    I 
    cut 
    my 
    teeth 
    on 
    wedding 
    rings 
    in 
    the 
    movies 

    And 
    I'm 
    not 
    proud 
    of 
    my 
    address 

    In 
    a 
    torn 
    up 
    town, 
    no 
    postcode 
    envy 

    Pre-chorus 1
    But 
    every 
    song's 
    like 
    Gold 
    teeth, 
    Grey 
    Goose, 

    trippin' 
    in 
    the 
    bathroom 

    Bloodstains, 
    ball 
    gowns, 

    trashin' 
    the 
    hotel 
    room 

    We 
    don't 
    care 

    We're 
    driving 
    Cadillacs 
    in 
    our 
    dreams 

    But 
    everybody's 
    like 

    Cristal, 
    Maybach, 

    diamonds 
    on 
    your 
    timepiece 

    Jet 
    planes, 
    islands, 
    tigers 
    on 
    a 
    gold 
    leash 

    We 
    don't 
    care 

    We 
    aren't 
    caught 
    up 
    in 
    your 
    love 
    affair 

    Chorus 1
    And 
    we'll 
    never 
    be 
    royals 
    (royals) 

    It 
    don't 
    run 
    in 
    our 
    blood 

    That 
    kind 
    of 
    luxe 
    just 
    ain't 
    for 
    us 

    We 
    crave 
    a 
    different 
    kind 
    of 
    buzz 

    Let 
    me 
    be 
    your 
    ruler 
    (ruler) 

    You 
    can 
    call 
    me 
    queen 
    bee 

    And 
    baby, 
    I'll 
    rule 
    (I'll 
    rule, 
    I'll 
    rule, 
    I'll 
    rule) 

    Let 
    me

    Verse 2
    My 
    friends 
    and 
    I, 
    we've 
    cracked 
    the 
    code 

    We 
    count 
    our 
    dollars 
    on 
    the 
    train 
    to 
    the 
    party 

    And 
    every
    one 
    who 
    knows 
    us 
    knows 

    That 
    we're 
    fine 
    with 
    this, 

    we 
    didn't 
    come 
    from 
    money 

    Pre-chorus 2
    But 
    every 
    song's 
    like

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      "

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
