	  		                                                King's Song                             Jim Croce 



   C            Em          Am   
He struggled so hard to be king 
Dm    G 
Working night and day 
C           Em        Am         
Dreaming of only one thing 
Dm        G      
Never a holiday 
F                    C 
Somewhere along the way 
F                 Dm      G7     
He forgot she was only a girl 
        C            Em          
Now his kingdom has fallen 
         F              Dm      Bb     G         
And it's really quite a tragic tale 
      C           Em         Am          
Cause he built a castle to harbor his queen 
        F                C            G          
But the queen claimed he built her a jail 


    C           Em          Am 
He struggled so hard to be king 
Dm         G 
He wanted everything 
   C            Em           Am 
He built her a house by the sea 
Dm        G 
Just to keep her in 
F                    C 
Somewhere along the way 
F             Bb         G 
He forgot she needed a friend 
        C            Em 
Now his kingdom has fallen 
          F             Dm      Bb    G 
And it's really quite a tragic tale 
      C           Em         Am          
Cause he built a castle to harbor his queen 
         F               C            G      E7, A               
And the queen claimed he built her a jail 


    D                   G               Gm       
It happened so quickly before he could know 
         D     G    D            
She was gone, far gone 
G                         D      
Far from the castle, the diamonds and things 
         Bm          C      A7           
She had worn to the ball 
  G                         D 
There was a note that she carefully wrote 
 Bm            C          A7 
Signed it best wishes to all 

        D           F#m         Bm 
Oh you struggled so hard to be king 
Em7       A      
Working night and day 
D            F#m      Bm    Em7        A7 
Dreaming of only one thing, never a holiday 
G         Gm         D 
Somewhere along the way 
G                  C        A       D 
You forgot that I needed a man 

           D             F#m            D         B7 
When they found him they took him back where he belonged 
          Em       Em7             Em     A 
And his family and friends saw him annually 
          D          F#m           D            B 
And they say it's a shame what's become of the king
