Bm                                       E
I am a prince and I live in a ship and I aim my rifle and I shoot from the hip 
      D                    F#
and I have a friend I pity quite a bit 
                    Bm                          F#       E
she said ?grab your gun let?s have some fun, share with me your perigees 
  Bm
I have responsibilities, I cannot run!?
                                          Em  D
?I do not wish the death of any living thing, I might be a killer but one day 
        F#                                Bm                                  Em
I shall be queen and put an end to slaughter, but until then I?m keen on staking 
      D                            F#
claim to land and sea and everyfin between.?
B                                     F#
I played a game with eleven fools who told me not to break the rules 
D                                     F#
but when have angels ever helped me yet? 
B      Bm                F#
and magic isn?t real and anyway it doesn?t matter 
D                           F#
cause no matter what I conjure it could not help be me deflect
          Bm                           
the angry death of every hopeful thought 
D                                             F#
that I might be a lover or a fighter that I?m not 
                   B                        Em
in someones spider web or net I could be caught 
D                                             F#
but I?m too bitter, better off alone, guess I forgot
       D                     B 
So what? Do you want me to say sorry? 
E                   D               B
should I apologize, when you ignore me? 
                   D           Bm B
I didn?t ask to be right or to be lonely 
D                C       B    Bm
or to be hatched into an ugly story
Bm                                E
I am a prince and I had a pair of princesses in two sharp squares 
D                                     F#
but then I guess I bored them both to death 
Bm                               E
And now I think my calling is to break apart and fall to pieces 
D                                       Bm
better yet invent a brand new method of ascension
                                 Em
I?m impressed, you?ve managed to survive 
         D                                   F#
but rest assured we?d all be better off dead than alive 
                    B                                Em
cause when they get a-hold of us we?ll all be batter fried 
                                D                    F#
and I?m surprised that nobody?s considered switching sides
Bm            B                E
So here I am, respectfully and royally destroying 
F#         D                            F#
any chance of getting back on your good gills 
      B                                       E
And I don?t want to be hurtful but if yellows the new purple 
                         D                                F#
well then bleeding?s the new breathing, don?t you think I will!
                   B
I used to wish the death of every living thing 
D                                         F#
I might be your killer but you?d never be my queen 
                 B                                Em
so put away your laughter, pack up your hopes and dreams 
F#                             D                    F#
I?m done with black back-handing and red pandering, it seems
               B                    Em
That I am just pathetic, I won?t be overlooked 
                      D                             F#
I?m past the point of fishing to get back upon your hook 
            B                                Em     Bm
I?ve made a manifesto, I?ve been bested by a crook, but never more! 
D                                  F#
I?m planning on reclaiming what he took?
   D                       Bm  B
So what? do you want me to say sorry? 
E            D           B
should I apologize, when you ignore me? 
                   D           Bm B
I didn?t ask to be right or to be lonely 
Bm       C               B
or to be hatched into an ugly story 
D             C            B
to be hatched into an ugly story
E                D               B
Oh my, this pantomime is getting gory

I am a prince and I live in a ship
