verse 1: Jorja Smith
Gm F6
Why am I gonna apologize?
Cm D
What have I even done?
Gm F6
Why you acting like you lost the crown
Cm D
If you were never wearing one?
Gm F6
Falling ever deeper, dealing cards now
Cm D
Now you can't recognize yourself on the deck
Gm F6
I thought I was your queen of hearts
Cm D
But all the aces stole the check
Gm F6
A prince, a prince
Cm D
A glorious game
Gm F6
A prince, a prince
Cm D
Checkmate 'til you stole me away
verse 2: Jorja Smith
Gm F6
Cursing words, am I a pauper now?
Cm D
Even though all my shoes do fit
Gm F6
Won't even let me leave the house past 12
Cm D
I ain't no fairytale chick
Gm F6
Happy endings cloud your head now
Cm D
You have put your expectations too high
Gm F6
Sit on the bed, tears running down our eyes
Cm D
Once upon a time, I wonder why
Gm F6
A prince, a prince
Cm D
A glorious game
Gm F6
A prince, a prince
Cm D
Checkmate 'til you stole me away
verse 3: Maverick Sabre
Gm
Darling hold on a second
F6
You know that your eyes and your smile are a weapon
Cm
Now come here, why won't you just listen?
D
You tell me I'm hurting your arm with my grip
Gm
See now trust me, but never trust women
F6
Yeah they're perfect, I'm at home stressed
Cm
With this skunk spliff
D
When I know that you're out on the road being faithless
Does it make sense?
Gm
And my insecurities don't pay rent
F6
But they're living with me
Cm
And this is a disease
D
We live in a man's world so what you expect me to be?
Gm
Now, now, now
F6
Whether it's the shit sex or this limp dick
Cm
My reflection keeps telling me sick things
You know that I'm ugly
D
I hope that you want me, I'll make sure you love me
Gm F6
A prince, a prince
Cm D
A glorious game
Gm F6
A prince, a prince
Cm D
Checkmate 'til you stole me away

Gm F6
No I've never been a prince, no, no
Cm D
And I tried to be a king, oh Lord
Gm F6
Said I've never been a prince, no, no
Cm D
And I tried to be a king, but I let you down, my queen
Oh you let me down, my king
