Am
Welcome to the great republic
G
Guess I should show you round
F G
Where once I was a King, and now I am a clown
Am G
The love that we once shared, made a King of me
F
But now you're gone, but now you're gone
G
All I face is poverty
[Chorus]
Am G
King without a heart, King without a hope
F
King without a woman baby
G Am
Oh, I'm a King without a crown
Am G
King without a heart, King without a hope
F
King without a woman baby
G Am
Oh, I'm a King without a crown
[Verse]
Am
Hell hath no fury (Hell hath no fury)
G
Like a woman scorned (Like a woman scorned)
F
But heaven don't boast, no heaven don't boast
G
The jewel, the pretty jewel I just pawned (I just pawned)
Am G
Every cloud has a silver lining (Every dog has its day)
F
Oh, but I guess the sun stopped shining (shining, shining)
G
On the day you went away
[Chorus]
Am G
King without a heart, King without a hope
F
King without a woman baby
G Am
Oh, I'm a King without a crown

King without a heart, King without a hope

Bathed in former glory, deposed from my throne
F
How do I get to tell my story
G
When all get's your answerphone, but you ain't home
Am G
With the love you gave, I felt like royalty
F
But now you're face to face, face to face
G
With one ex-member of the aristocracy
[Chorus]
Am G
King without a heart, King without a hope
F
King without a woman baby

King without a woman baby

Yes, I'm a King (King), King without a crown

You'll see a man who's just a man, nothing more
G Am
A King without a crown
