Verse
Am C F
Did you grow up lonesome and one of a kind?
Am C F
Were your records all you had to pass the time?
Am C F
Or maybe you were taken by the mysteries of New Orleans?
Am C F
Or the uptight, rowdy girls of Lower Chelsea?
Pre-chorus
Am C F
And we hustle in London but we live in the city
Am C F
And we keep it down when we take a beating
Am C F
Yeah, we keep it down with the radio on
Am G F
And if you find a good man, don't take him home
Chorus
C
When you're working full-time
F C F
And spending all of your nights never dancing like you did
C F
While the gravity hangs on all the selling points you had,
C F
Should've stayed and been the Queen of Lower Chelsea
Verse
Am
Did you grow up a good girl,
C F
Your daddy's pride?
Am
Did you make all the right moves,
C F
Take all the right drugs right on time?
Am C F
American girls, they want the whole world
Am C F
They want every last little light in New York City
Pre-chorus
Am C F
But we're hustling in London and we're fast asleep
Am C F
And we keep it down when we take a beating
Am C F
Yeah, we keep it down with the radio on
Am G F
And if you find a good man, don't take him home
Chorus
C
When you're working full-time
F C F
And spending all of your nights never dancing like you did
C F
While the gravity hangs on all the selling points you had,
C F
Should've stayed and been the Queen of Lower Chelsea
Bridge
F
Well they say these days,
Am
Nothing comes cheap
C
And everything has a price
F
Everyone has a price
Am
No nothing is free
C
Not even me
F Am C F
Chorus x2
C
When you're working full-time
F C F
And spending all of your nights never dancing like you did
C F
While the gravity hangs on all the selling points you had,
C F
Should've stayed and been the Queen of Lower Chelsea
