[Verse 1]
C Bb F
I'm as crazy as clown tonight
F Em
a clown without a crown tonight
Am Dm G
a simple sack of wishes and bones.
C Bb F
I'm as useless as a memory
F Em
the day before it came to me
Am Dm G
to save your time stitches and stones
[Refrain]
F G C Em Am G
But once in my life I was the king of the earth
F G
once in my life,
C F C F
I was.
[Verse 2]
C Bb F
I've flown horses on the skies above
F Em
that aint enough for you my love
Am Dm G
to fill these empty castles with ghosts
C Bb F
I've married devils to their history
F Em
sood where you would bury me
Am Dm G
through a time of statues and rows
[Refrain]
F G C Em Am G
But once in my life I was the king of the Earth
F G
Once in my life
C
I was.
[Bridge]
Am
now that the stars have frozen in their places
F G C
all that I've hold seems gone
Em Am D
now that the stars have fallen from their faces
Dm G
I will see you on
[Verse 3]
C Bb F
I'll never be your picture present
F Em
but I hope you go the rose I sent
Am Dm G
to save your town of stitches and bones
C Bb F
I'm nothing more than a simple man
F Em
born to be american
Am Dm G
out to draw these bridges and motes
{Ending]

but once in my life I was the king of the Earth
F G
Once in my life...
