[Opening]
[C]I’m perfectly fine, I [G]lived on my own
I [Dm]made up my mind i’m better [F]off being alone
[G]We met a [G]few weeks ago
Now [Dm]you try on calling me baby [F]like trying on clothes.

[C]Salute to me, I’m your American Queen
And you [G]move to me like I’m a Motown beat

King of my heart[Dm], body and soul.[F]
And all at [Dm]once, I have
been waiting, waiting…[F]oohwah oohwah
And all at [G]once, you are the one [Dm]I have
been [F]waiting, waiting…. body and soul
And all at [C]once.

[verse 2]
[C]Late in the night, the [G]city’s asleep
Your [Dm]love is a secret
I’m hoping, [F]dreaming, dying to keep
[C]Change my [G]priorities
The [Dm]taste of your lips is my idea [F]of luxury.

[chorus]
[C]Salute to me, I’m your American Queen
And you [G]move to me like I’m a Motown beat
And we [Dm]rule the kingdom inside my room. [F]

Their [G]Range Rover and their Jaguars
[Dm]Never took me quite where you do. [F]

[chorus]
And all at once you are the one I have been [G]waiting for
King of my heart[Dm], body and soul.[F]

And all at [C]once.

[Closing]
Is this the end of all the [G]endings?
My broken bones are [Dm]mending
With all this nights we’re [F]spending
Up on the roof with a school girl crush
Drinking [G]beer out of plastic cups
Say you fancy [Dm]me not fancy stuff
Baby all at [F]once this is enough.

[chorus]
And all at once you are the one I have been [G]waiting for
King of my heart[Dm], body and soul.[F]
And all at [C]once you’re all I want I’ll never [G]let you go
King of my heart[Dm], body and soul.[F]

Been [F]waiting, waiting…. body and soul
And all at [C]once.
