Biography:
John Hiatt (born on August 20, 1952 in Indianapolis, Indiana, U.S.) is an American blues and rock guitarist, pianist, and singer-songwriter. He has been nominated for eleven Grammy Awards. Hiatt's sales have never quite matched his reputation. His songs have been covered by a wide variety of artists such as Bonnie Raitt, Ronnie Milsap, Willie Nelson, Iggy Pop, Three Dog Night, and The Neville Brothers, yet it took him thirteen years to reach the charts himself.

[Intro]
A (riff)
[Verse 1]
Bb
I dreamed I had a good job and I got well paid
E
Blew it all at the penny arcade
Bb
A hundred dollars on a kewpie doll
E Bb
I guess no white chick is gonna make me crawl (that's right)
[Chorus]
[ch ]G G F# F E
On a TWA, to the promised land
E
Every woman, child and man
G A
Gets a cadillac and a diamond ring
E A D
Dont you know we're riding with the king?
[Verse 2]
Bb
Hes on a mission of mercy to the new frontier
E
Hes gonna check us all on out of here
Bb
Up to that mansion on a hill
E Bb
Where you can get your prescription filled (any kind of pill)
[Chorus]
G G F# F E
On a TWA to the promised land
E
Everybody come on and clap your hands
G A
Dont you just love the way he sings
Bb E A
Dont you know we're riding with the king?
[Break]
Bb E A
We're ridin' with the King
Bb E A
Don't you know we're ridin' with the King
[Verse 3]
D Bb
A red cape and shiny colt 45
D Bb
I never saw his face but I saw the light
G A
Tonight everybody's getting their angel wings
Bb E A
Dont you know we're riding with the king?
[Verse 4]-spoken
Bb
Well I stepped out of a mirror at ten years old
E A
With a suit sharp as a razor and a heart of gold
Bb
I had a guitar hanging just about waist high
E A
I'm gonna play that thing until the day I die
[Chorus-Outro]
Bb E A
Bb
We're ridin' with the King
