just a simple way of playing it acoustically. hopefully it works out for everyone!
the notes in brackets are just optional little add ons i like to throw in, not
complicated cos i'm dense but it gives it a nice swingy sound. so just stick to
the A in the verse etc. hopefully it's playable at least. enjoy!
corrections encouraged.
Prince Johnny[Am],
You'r[(G)Am]e kind but you're not simpl[(G)Am]e
By now[(G)Am] I think I know the differe[(G)Am]nce
You wanna [D]be the [C]son of [G]someone
Re[G]member the time we went and [Em]snorted
A [G]piece of the Berlin wall that you'd [Em]extorted
And [D]we had [C]such a [G]laugh of it?
[D]Prostrate [C]on my [G]carpet
You [Am]traced [(G)Am]the Andes with your index[(G)Am]
And brag of[(G)Am] when and where and who you gonna bed ne[(G)Am]xt
[D]All with [C]sons of [G]someones
[D]All with [C]sons of [G]someones
Saw you pray to [Am(G)Am]all[Am(G)Am]
To make you a real bo[D]y
Saw you pray to [Am(G)Am]all[Am(G)Am]
To make you a real bo[D]y
Prince [Am]Johnny,
[(G)Am]You're kind but do be careful[(G)Am]
By [Am]now [(G)Am]I know just when to stand cle[(G)Am]ar
When [D]all your [C]friends and [G]acolytes are
[D]Holding [C]court in [G]bathroom stalls
Where you pray to [Am(G)Am]all[Am(G)Am]
To make you a real bo[D]y
Saw you pray to [Am(G)Am]all[Am(G)Am]
To make you a real bo[D]y
(4 beat pause)
But [G]honey, don't mistake my [Em]affection
For [G]another spit-and-penny style [Em]redemption
Cause [D]we're all [C]sons of [G]someones
[D]We're all [C]sons of [G]someones
I wanna [D(E)]mean [C]more [(D)]than they [G]mean to you
I wanna [D(E)]mean [C]more [(D)]than I [G]meant to him
So I pray to [Am(G)Am]all[Am(G)Am]
To [D]make me a real girl[Em]
So I pray to [Am(G)Am]all[Am(G)Am]
To [D]make me a real girl[Em]
