CAPO I
[Intro]
Em7 A Em7 A
Em7 A Em7 A
Em7 A Em7 A
Em7 A Em7 A
[Verse 1]
Em7 A Em7 A
As the sun sets on Sunset
Em7 A Em7 A
It reflects against a can wet with condensation
Em7 A Em7 A
His baby left, she’s going back to school again
Em7 A Em7 A
And learning fifty ways to kill the conversation
[Chorus]
Em7 A
'Cause if you can’t be good (if you can't be good)
Em7 A
If you can't be good (you can't be good)
Em7 A Em7 A
If you can't be good, you drink in the name of art
Em7 A Em7 A
And as the sun sets on Sunset again
Em7 A Em7 A
The stars come out so it don’t get dark on the king of Echo Park
[Interlude]
Em7 A Em7 A
Em7 A Em7 A
The King of Echo Park
Em7 A Em7 A
Em7 A Em7 A
The King of Echo Park
[Verse 2]
Em7 A Em7 A
Now she’s playing pool at the little joy
Em7 A Em7 A
Just a little drunk, she sees her little boy
Em7 A Em7 A
And as they smoked outside, she wondered how long she’d have to wait
Em7 A Em7 A
Until it wouldn’t be too soon to take him back to her place
[Chorus]
Em7 A
'Cause if you can’t go home (can't go home)
Em7 A
if you can’t go home (can't go home)
Em7 A Em7 A
With the one you love, you go home with someone
Em7 A Em7 A
And it’s never too soon and it’s never too late
Em7 A Em7 A
'Cause when you’re royalty babe, you never have to work. And he’s the king of Echo Park
[Interlude]
Em7 A Em7 A
Em7 A Em7 A
The King of Echo Park
Em7 A Em7 A
Em7 A Em7 A
[Verse 3]
Em7 A Em7 A
Now he’s walking home in the very same clothes
Em7 A Em7 A
As the night before, except you'd never know
Em7 A Em7 A
And all the girls he’s bagged, they just can’t stay mad
Em7 A Em7 A
They just wave their hands at no ordinary jerk
[Bridge]
Em7 A Em7 A
But who’s afraid of a little cliché
Em7 A Em7 A
As he sipped ice tea in the palm tree shade
Em7 A Em7 A
And as he looked around and everything was right
Em7 A Em7 A
But as he closed his eyes he dreamt he was in New York. The King of Echo Park
[Outro]
Em7 A Em7 A
Em7 A Em7 A
The King of Echo Park
Em7 A Em7 A
