Am                   F
Ever since she was a child
G                           Am
She always knew how to get her way
Am                    F
Just act a little bit wild
                  G             Am
And someone will surely come to play
Am                      F
It's a truth she took to heart
                 G                         Am
But humility and patience didn't come with age
Am                      F
She's born to play this part
         G             Am
A diva's always center stage

Am                        E7
Toddler's cries that grow louder and louder
F              G        C
Relishing in untestable power
Am               F
Glowing red in a black and white scene,
    E7
The one and only:
C   G     Am
Candle queen
Am                           E7
Stoking the flames that burn higher and higher
F              G        C
Royalty with a crown of fire
Am                F
Setting ablaze an extravagant scene,
     E7
The one and only:
C   G  Am
Candle queen

[Verse 2]
Am          F
Addicted to adrenaline
           G           Am
And always looking for attention
 Am              F
Thought to be so genuine
                    G        Am
When she's suddenly met with apprehension
Am               F
The fighting has begun
             G               Am
And she'd do anything to get ahead
           Am               F
Like using people as ladder rungs
             G                   Am
And sweeping eggshells under the bed

{chrous}
Am                        E7
Toddler's cries that grow louder and louder
F              G        C
Relishing in untestable power
Am               F
Glowing red in a black and white scene,
    E7
The one and only:
C   G     Am
Candle queen
Am                           E7
Stoking the flames that burn higher and higher
F              G        C
Royalty with a crown of fire
Am                F
Setting ablaze an extravagant scene,
     E7
The one and only:
C   G  Am
Candle queen

[Bridge]
F                            C
Ah, but there's hope for you still
F                   E7
Before it all comes unfurled
F                   G   C
Ah, you just need to chill
     F       Am         E7
It's not the end of the world
  Am                       F
She just can't help but be this way
G                       Am
She lost her true self long ago
Am                            F
Now all her friends have been pushed away
          G                      Am
Because a caricature is all they know

[Chorus]
Am                        E7
Toddler's cries that grow louder and louder
F                   G    C
Everyone rushing to disavow her
Am              F
All alone in a black and white scene,
    E7
The one and only:
C  G   Am
Candle queen
Am                           E7
Hurt by the flames that burn higher and higher
F                  G        C
Clutching a broken crown of fire
Am               F
All alone in the final scene,
    E7
The one and only:
C   G  Am
Candle queen

[Outro]
F                  E7    Am
What a pity, that candle queen
