King Of The World
 

Am7   Bm7       E
Hello  one and all
Was it you I used to know?
Can't you hear me call
On this old ham radio?
All I've got to say
I'm alive and feeling fine
Should you come my way
You can share my poison wine

Bm7                                           Cmaj7
No marigolds in the promised land,
C                               G                                 D
There's a hole in the ground where they used to grow
Bm7                         Cmajj7
Any man left on the Rio Grande
Em7 D                                             A
Is the king of the world as far as I know

I won't take your bread
I don't need no helping hand
I can't be no savage
I can't be no highwayman
Show me where you are
You and I can will this day
Driving in my car
Through the ruins of Santa Fe

Chorus

Am7            Em7
I'm reading last years papers
Although I don't know why
Assassins, cons and rapers
C              G    A
Might as well die

When you come around
No more pain and no regrets
Watch the sun go brown
Smoking cobalt cigarettes

There's no need to hide
Taking things the easy way
If I stay inside
I might live till Saturday

Chorus
