Riley B. King Chords by Robben Ford

[Ab] _ He's a king [Eb] _ _ _
_ [Ab] without a castle [Eb] or crown

_ In [Ab] a different [Gm] _ town
_ _ [B] One thing [Cm] stays the same
[G] _ _ [Ab] _ _ Everybody _ knows [Eb] his name
_ _ People _ _ [Ab] will laugh or [Eb] cry _
_ [Ab] As his stories [Eb] are told

_ _ [Ab] Into the [Eb] light _
[Bb] _ [Cm] To fight [G] the beast

He's [Ab] such a beautiful [Eb] sight _
_ [B] And the way [Cm] you feel
_ _ [Ab] Watching him _ with [Bb] _ Lucille
_ _ _ [Fm] _
_ [Ab] The heart of the [Eb] man _
Is [Ab] _ open [Eb] _ wide
[Bb] _ [Cm] And he closes [G] his eyes
_ [Cm] And he looks _ [Eb] inside _
_ [Ab] To a _ [Eb] love of the world
_ And a [B] song he [Cm] might sing
_ [Ab] A little something from _
_ [Bb] _ [F] BBK
_ _ _ [Gm] _
