Intro: 
F#m F#m F#m A B 
F#m F#m E D     (x2) 

Verse 
F#m 
Welcome to the nightmare 

Where villains wear the crowns 
D 
 Fools rule a broken world 
    A               E 
And fear grows all around 

Bm 
 There's a bad king 
D           E           F#m 
 A dreadful puppet on a string 

      F#m 
He pretends to be a champion 

Of the common man 
D 
 Wants more division 
       A              E 
In his lost and riven land 

Bm 
 He plays with real lives 
D       E               F#m 
 In the darkest game of life 

Bridge 
           B 
His greedy eyes 
                                       F#m 
Looks insane, frozen smile like he's in pain 
           B 
He doesn't count 
                                      C# 
The human cost but only money made or lost 

Yeah 

           F#m 
King for a day 
D             E                B 
 He kills the truth and looks away 
           F#m 
King for a day 
D               E                 B 
 Lives like the world would end today 
           F#m 
King for a day 
D            E                B 
 What do you hide, Why do you lie? 

             D 
Who made the rules for this game 
       E 
Who is paying your champagne? 
        D 
All the mercy in the world 
       E           C# 
Cannot save you anymore 
           F#m 
King for a day 


Instrumental 
F#m F#m F#m A B 
F#m F#m E D     (x2) 

Verse 
F#m 
He knows how to justify 

And how to feed the myths 
D 
 How to glorify 
    A                 E 
The lies and hide the truth 

Bm 
 He talks a lot but 
D             E             F#m 
 His mouth is full of empty words 

F#m 
 He has the right friends 

Making shady inside deals 
D 
 Before the story ends 
   A              E 
We will be out of tears 

Bm 
 Fools give the answer 
D         E          F#m 
 Wise men don't even try 

Bridge 
             B 
The time has come 

To dethrone him but there's a new clone 
         F#m 
Stepping in, yeah 
          B 
Just more scum 
                                   C# 
Another greedy, rotten puppet on a string 

Yeah 

           F#m 
King for a day 
D             E                B 
 He kills the truth and looks away 
           F#m 
King for a day 
D               E                 B 
 Lives like the world would end today 
           F#m 
King for a day 
D            E                B 
 What do you hide, Why do you lie? 

             D 
Who made the rules for this game 
       E 
Who is paying your champagne? 
        D 
All the mercy in the world 
       E           C# 
Cannot save you anymore 

King for a day

Just vote for me again
