(Heavy Palm muting)
G C
i'm starting to think the thoughts i shouldn't think
i think i think too much
G D
i think that i forgot how to relax or just have fun
G C G
but all of my attempts have met success much more than i would guess
D G
i guess that i might not be dead yet
(release P.M.)
G C
i am the king, i've got my sons, i've got my swords, i've got my words
G D
i've got the strength that i need to kill all my foes
G
the years go by, my eyes run dry
C
it's so hard to smile sometimes
D G D
i feel so alone upon this throne
C
all of this, i did for her
D
the treasure from the dragon's lair
G D C
the gold, the jewels, the castle, and the cat
C D
so many say they're proud of me and i'm a good and honest king
G D C
but honestly it doesn't mean shit to me without her,
G C G
it doesn't mean shit to me without her.
G
'cause what's a king without his queen?
C
how much happiness can power bring?
G D
i'd trade it all for a chance to fall in love again
G
when will i find a heart like mine?
C
a heart like hers, i want sometime
G D G
i try and try, i think i try too hard
G
can i repair all my despair?
C G D
can i hide how i feel inside, enough at least to make myself look half
alive?
G C
what a king, what songs i sing, sad melodies and sorry things
G D G
i hope to bring a change in this one day
C D
'cause what would people think of me, their melancholy, lonely king
G D C
that sings of such sad and sorry things
C
and all the while i look for smiles
D G D C
and preach about the way we're gonna make this world into a better place
(heavy palm muting)
G
so maybe everything's alright
C G
we'll stay up late riding our bikes, we'll talk until you have to go to
D
school
G C
maybe i'm not broke so bad, just sing a song that's not so sad
G D G
am i the king or am i the fool?
(realease P.M.)
G C
maybe i'm not broke so bad, just sing a song that's not so sad
G D(end on)G
am i the king or am i the fool?
