King's Song by Jim Croce


         King's Song


Capo:no capo
 
   C            Em          Am
He struggled so hard to be king
Dm/Dm7    G
Working night and day
C           Em        Am
Dreaming of only one thing
Dm/Dm7    G
Never a holiday
F                    C
Somewhere along the way
F                 Dm      G7
He forgot she was only a girl
        C            Em
Now his kingdom has fallen
         F              Dm      Bb     G
And it's really quite a tragic tale
      C           Em         Am
Cause he built a castle to harbor his queen
        F                C            G
But the queen claimed he built her a jail
 
 
    C           Em          Am
He struggled so hard to be king
Dm/Dm7     G
He wanted everything
   C            Em           Am
He built her a house by the sea
Dm/Dm7    G
Just to keep her in
F                    C
Somewhere along the way
F             Bb         G
He forgot she needed a friend
        C            Em
Now his kingdom has fallen
          F             Dm      Bb    G
And it's really quite a tragic tale
      C           Em         Am
Cause he built a castle to harbor his queen
         F               C            G      E7, A
And the queen claimed he built her a jail
 
 
    D                   G               Gm
It happened so quickly before he could know
         D     G    D
She was gone, far gone
G                         D
Far from the castle, the diamonds and things
         Bm          C      A7
She had worn to the ball
  G                         D
There was a note that she carefully wrote
 Bm            C          A7
Signed it best wishes to all
 
        D           F#m         Bm
Oh you struggled so hard to be king
Em7       A
Working night and day
D            F#m      Bm    Em7        A7
Dreaming of only one thing, never a holiday
G         Gm         D
Somewhere along the way
G                  C        A       D
You forgot that I needed a man
 
           D             F#m            D         B7
When they found him they took him back where he belonged
          Em       Em7             Em     A
And his family and friends saw him annually
          D          F#m           D            B
And they say it's a shame what's become of the king
