Chords for Ben Harper - Like A King | Live Plus Près De Toi

This is the first song that was ever played on the radio of mine _ here at Nova.
_ _ _ _ First time ever _ _ and _ my dear friend and manager at the time _ we were in America
and _ _ _ in LA _ _ and _ we were living _ _ on _ this girl's floor _ _ _ and _ _ _ _ the phone rang _ _ and our
friend Frank had come over, _ _ sorry for my English, _ _ _ _ _ Frank knew someone here at Nova
at night, at night late _ and he'd wake up, wake up, _ you were on the radio, _ listen
and it was on the radio over the phone in LA. _ _
It was crazy, it was the best feeling ever.
To this day it's still _ nothing tops that really [A] as a musician.
