Berikut lirik dan chord lagu "Royals" dari Lorde:

                          D
I've never seen a diamond in the flesh
               D
I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the movies
                         D
And I'm not proud of my address - in the torn up town

No postcode envy

                                   D
But every song's like: gold teeth, grey goose, trippin' in the bathroom

Blood stains, ballgowns, trashin' the hotel room
C                                                G
We don't care - we're driving Cadillacs in our dreams
                                            D
But everybody's like Cristal, Mayback, diamonds on your timepiece

Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
C                                            G
We don't care - we aren't caught up in your love affair

                                       D
And we'll never be royals - It don't run in our blood
                          C
That kind of lux just ain't for us
                           G
We crave a different kind of buzz
                                 D
Let me be your ruler - you can call me Queen Bee
                          C
And baby I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule
G                         D
Let me live that fantasy

                        D
My friends and I we've cracked the code
                      D
We count our dollars on the train to the party
              D
And everyone who knows us knows that we're fine with this

We didn't come from money

                                   D
But every song's like: gold teeth, grey goose, trippin' in the bathroom

Blood stains, ballgowns, trashin' the hotel room
C                                                G
We don't care - we're driving Cadillacs in our dreams
                                                 D
But everybody's like Cristal, Mayback, diamonds on your timepiece

Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
C                                         G
We don't care - we aren't caught up in your love affair

                                          D
And we'll never be royals - It don't run in our blood
                          C
That kind of lux just ain't for us
                          G
We crave a different kind of buzz
                                  D
Let me be your ruler - you can call me Queen Bee
                         C
And baby I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule
G                       D
Let me live that fantasy

D
oh ooh oh Ohh
             C
We're bigger than we ever dreamed
                      G
And I'm in love with being queen (king)
D
oh ooh oh ohh
C
Life's a game without a care
                   G
We aren't caught up in your love affair

                                       D
And we'll never be royals - It don't run in our blood
                          C
That kind of lux just ain't for us
                           G
We crave a different kind of buzz
                                  D
Let me be your ruler - you can call me Queen Bee
                         C
And baby I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule
G                                 D
Let me live that fantasy
