FF AbAb
My grandmama used to tell me one day I would be king
Eb MajorEb AbAb
And that it could be me to put these dreams into a sling

And fling 'em like a bullet 'til they bean the whole ruling regime
Eb MajorEb AbAb
In the melon and I tell 'em that I'll one day reign supreme
FF AbAb
But it seems, I'm a damn salmon swimming upstream
Eb MajorEb AbAb
I scream cause I know just why the caged bird sings

I'll adorn the king's throne, wear his treasure with pleasure
