Biography:
King Dude is a side project of American musician TJ Cowgill (Teen Cthulhu and Book of Black Earth) of Seattle, WA that explores a darkly spiritual acoustic-folk sound.
Pulling together the biblical sound and isolation of the bygone days of revelation with an atmosphere filled with hope and salvation, King Dude has woven his own brand of American music. He brandishes many varied influences in his songwriting. Everything from British Folk, Americana, Country and Blues can be heard in his songs.

Last night I was free
Am
Outside in the field
Where we both fell in love
Em
And I knew it was real
You put me outside
G
I was singing a song
You looked to the window
C
But I was already gone
C/B
The wind was whipping, licking like tongues
Am
And our skin like the heavens
Em
Clouds in our lungs
I saw my reflection
G
In that dark, dirty glass
I think about you and I think of the past
C C/B
Am Em G Am Em G Am Em G Am C G
If you wanna be free, don't think about me
Dm
Don't you look in my eyes
C
Don't you hang around me
No more, oh
Am Em G Am Em G
The thing that you want is what's killing me
Dm
Don't you dare take my hand
If you wanna be free, oh no
C Am Em G Am Em G
Your face like a painting in your historic mind
Am
But you barely survived
Em
And you're barely alive
Those rules of lost days that we buried in time
G
I carried the baby it felt dead inside
C C/B
Well you carried my child
Am
I planted my seed
I know it was wrong, but you know what I need
Em
You saw it in my eyes when you were looking at me
G
You keep darkening my doorway
C
Your love sets me free, oh
