[Gb] [Db]
[Ab] [Eb]
[Gb] [Db] [Ab]
[Eb] [Gb] He's a king, he's a [Ab] poor boy, the coward [Eb] in his dreams, [Gb] seems standing there so all [Ab] alone.
Well [Gb] I guess he'll keep standing there [Ab] until he's called for, [Gb] and tomorrow's hurricanes [Ab] have blown.
[Gb] His hate [Db] grew old, [Ab] and now the [Eb] story's told, [Gb]
he [Db] found no trust and called his [Ab] own.
[Gb] His name [Db] was lost, his [Ab] spirit was [Eb] cast, [Gb] he couldn't [Db] make up [Ab] for the loan.
But [Db] many [Ab] great men are rich, [Eb]
[Db] back to [Ab] the place where it [Eb] began.
[Db] And men are turned out [Ab] for [Eb] the burning, when [Db] the devil phones [Ab] late morning when he's silent.
[Bb] [Db] And the madmen [Ab] are waiting at the [Eb] station, [Db] getting on the [Ab] steps one by [Eb] one.
[Ab] I [Db] guess that's the [Ab]
way [Eb] it
[Db] was before [Eb] all those [Bb] things [Ab] were done.
[Bb] [Eb] [Bb]
[Eb] [Bb]
[Eb] [Bb]
[Eb] A phone [Db] has a key, [Ab] his life is full [Eb] of pain.
[Bb] [Eb] When he heard [Db] the music, [Ab] he lost [Db] a lot of time.
[Eb] Someone's calling for [Gb] him, [Ab] his house is a muddy [Eb] place.
They didn't even [Bbm] snore,
[Ab] and he showed a happy [Bb] [Ab] pose.

[Eb] All his secrets, [Db]
they've [Eb] all been told, [Bbm]
[Eb] traded in [Db] his daughter [Bbm] and her gold.

[Eb] [Gb] He's a king, he's a [Ab] poor boy, the coward [Eb] in his dreams, [Gb] seems standing out there so all [Ab] alone.
Well I [Gb] guess we'll keep standing there [Ab] until he's [Eb] called for,
[Gb] and tomorrow's [Ab] hurricanes have blown.
But [Db] many great [Ab] men are rich, [Eb] back [Db]
to [Ab] the place where it began.
[Eb]
[Db] And men are turned [Ab] out for the burning,
[Eb] when [Db] the devil phones [Ab] late morning when he's silent.
[Eb]
And the madmen [Ab] are waiting at the station,
[Eb] [Db] getting on [Ab] the steps one by one.
I
[Db] suggest that [Ab] you make a reservation
[Db] before [Eb] all those things are [Ab] done.
