Gm                                Gm
Sick of all these people talking, Sick of all this noise
Gm                                   Gm
Tired of all these cameras flashing, Sick of being poised
Gm                       Gm
Now my neck is open wide begging for a fist around it
D#                            Cm
Already choking on my pride, so there's no use crying about it

Chorus:
                           Gm
I'm headed straight for the castle,
They wanna make me their queen
               D#
And there's an old man sitting on a throne
                       Cm
that's saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean
                            Gm
I'm headed straight for the castle,
They've got the kingdom locked up
               D#
And there's an old man sitting on a throne
                         Cm
that's saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut
                  Gm
Straight for the castle

Oh, all these minutes passing, sick of feeling used
If you wanna break these walls down, you’re gonna get bruised
Now my neck is open wide, begging for a fist around it
Already choking on my pride, so there's no use crying about it

Chorus:
I'm headed straight for the castle
They wanna make me their queen
And there's an old man sitting on the throne saying that
I probably shouldn't be so mean
I'm headed straight for the castle
They’ve got the Kingdom locked up
And there's an old man sitting on the throne there saying
I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut
Straight for the castle

Gm
There's no use crying about it
G/B
There's no use crying about it
Cm
There's no use crying about it
Cm6
There's no use crying about it

Chorus:
I'm headed straight for the castle
They wanna make me their queen
And there's an old man sitting on the throne
there that's saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean
I'm headed straight for the castle
They’ve got the Kingdom locked up
And there's an old man sitting on the throne
there saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut
Straight for the castle
They wanna make me their queen
And there's an old man sitting on the throne
 there saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean
I'm headed straight for the castle
They’ve got the Kingdom locked up
And there's an old man sitting on the throne
there saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut
Straight for the castle
