[Intro]
A A7sus2


[Verse]
A
I had a king in a tenement castle
A7sus2 Asus2
Lately he's taken to painting the pastel walls brown
Fmaj7
He's taken the curtains down
A7sus2 Em7add4/A
He's swept with the broom of contempt
Am7 A6sus2/E
And the rooms have an empty ring
A7sus2
He's cleaned with the tears
Em7/A Am7 A6sus2/E
Of an actor who fears for the laughter's sting-


[Chorus]
Aadd4 A
I can't go back there anymore
Aadd4 A
You know my keys won't fit the door
Aadd4 A
You know my thoughts don't fit the man
A7sus2 A
They never can, they never can


[Verse]
A
I had a king dressed in drip-dry and paisley
A7sus2 Asus2
Lately he's taken to saying I'm crazy and blind
Fmaj7
He lives in another time
A7sus2 Em7add4/A
Ladies in gingham still blush
A7sus2 A6sus2/E
While he sings them of wars and wine
A7sus2 Em7add4/A
But I in my leather and lace
Am7 A6sus2/E
I can never become that kind


[Chorus]
Aadd4 A
I can't go back there anymore
Aadd4 A
You know my keys won't fit the door
Aadd4 A
You know my thoughts don't fit the man
A7sus2 A
They never can, they never can


[Verse]
A
I had a king in a salt-rusted carriage
A7sus2 Asus2
Who carried me off to his country for marriage too soon
Fmaj7
Beware of the power of moons
A7sus2
There's no one to blame
Em7add4/A A7sus2 A6sus2/E
No there's no one to name as a traitor here
A7sus2
The king's on the road
Em7add4/A Am7 A6sus2/E
And the queen's in the grove till the end of the year


[Chorus]
Aadd4 A
I can't go back there anymore
Aadd4 A
You know my keys won't fit the door
Aadd4 A
You know my thoughts don't fit the man
A7sus2 A
They never can, they never can
