[Intro] G F C x2 F C G x2 [Verse 1]
          F   C   G                F C   G
I built a wall in China. I sank an ocean liner

             Bb                 F                    G
I've wrecked homes, I've burned thrones, chasing the crown

         F      C       G              F      C      G
I've put thorns in your feet. I spread plague in the streets

            Bb              F                 G
I've sprung traps, confused maps, chasing the crown
[Chorus]
            C7
Chasing the crown 'til he bites the apple
I was licking my lips 'til the sun come down
                G      C                      G
I'm chasing the crown, crown, I'm chasing the crown

             C7
I'm taking a turn in the right direction
By leaving his soul in the lost and found
                G    F                 C
I'm chasing the crown, I'm chasing the crown
[Verse 2]
          F   C        G                 F   C     G
I saw the tea float in Boston. I saw the live wire shock 'em

            Bb                 F                    G
I made them float, I made them drown, chasing them 'round

           F C    G                  F C   G
I laid the desert sands. I froze the polar caps

                 Bb                  F                    G
Well, they'd dry out, and I'd shout "Hey, I'm chasing the crown"
[Chorus]
            C7
Chasing the crown 'til he bites the apple
I was licking my lips 'til the sun come down
                G      C                      G
I'm chasing the crown, crown, I'm chasing the crown

             C7
I'm taking a turn in the right direction
By leaving his soul in the lost and found
                G    F                 C
I'm chasing the crown, I'm chasing the crown
[Instrumental] F C G F C G Bb F G x2 [Chorus]
            C7
Chasing the crown 'til he bites the apple
I was licking my lips 'til the sun come down
                G      C                      G
I'm chasing the crown, crown, I'm chasing the crown

             C7
I'm taking a turn in the right direction
By leaving his soul in the lost and found
                G    F                 C
I'm chasing the crown, I'm chasing the crown
[Instrumental] G F C x4 [Verse 3]
          F   C   G                F C   G
I built a wall in China. I sank an ocean liner

             Bb                 F                    G
I've wrecked homes, I've burned thrones, chasing the crown

         F      C       G              F      C      G
I've put thorns in your feet. I spread plague in the streets

            Bb                   F                 G
I've sprung traps, I've confused maps, chasing the crown

          F   C        G                 F   C     G
I saw the tea float in Boston, I saw the live wire shock 'em

          Bb               F                    G
Made them float, made them drown, chasing them 'round
[Outro]
          F   C G          F    C  G    Bb F G
I built a wall.  I built a wall in China

                F    C G F C G Bb F G
I'm chasing the crown
