King's Song Jim Croce
C Em Am
He struggled so hard to be king
Dm/Dm7 G
Working night and day
C Em Am
Dreaming of only one thing
Dm/Dm7 G
Never a holiday
F C
Somewhere along the way
F Dm G7
He forgot she was only a girl
C Em
Now his kingdom has fallen
F Dm Bb G
And it's really quite a tragic tale
C Em Am
Cause he built a castle to harbor his queen
F C G
But the queen claimed he built her a jail
C Em Am
He struggled so hard to be king
Dm/Dm7 G
He wanted everything
C Em Am
He built her a house by the sea
Dm/Dm7 G
Just to keep her in
F C
Somewhere along the way
F Bb G
He forgot she needed a friend
C Em
Now his kingdom has fallen
F Dm Bb G
And it's really quite a tragic tale
C Em Am
Cause he built a castle to harbor his queen
F C G E7, A
And the queen claimed he built her a jail
D G Gm
It happened so quickly before he could know
D G D
She was gone, far gone
G D
Far from the castle, the diamonds and things
Bm C A7
She had worn to the ball
G D
There was a note that she carefully wrote
Bm C A7
Signed it best wishes to all
D F#m Bm
Oh you struggled so hard to be king
Em7 A
Working night and day
D F#m Bm Em7 A7
Dreaming of only one thing, never a holiday
G Gm D
Somewhere along the way
G C A D
You forgot that I needed a man
D F#m D B7
When they found him they took him back where he belonged
Em Em7 Em A
And his family and friends saw him annually
D F#m D B
And they say it's a shame what's become of the king
C Em Am
He struggled so hard to be king
Dm/Dm7 G
Working night and day
C Em Am
Dreaming of only one thing
Dm/Dm7 G
Never a holiday
F C
Somewhere along the way
F Dm G7
He forgot she was only a girl
C Em
Now his kingdom has fallen
F Dm Bb G
And it's really quite a tragic tale

And the queen claimed he built her a jail
