Eb                         Cm
I've got diamonds, pearls, I've got dancing girls,

all because I'm a king-ing.
Eb                   Cm                      Ab
People bow before me and the world adores me but I 
                Eb    Bb
don't have everything-ing.

I'm a king, a king without a queen.

Eb                Cm                   Ab
I sit here alone, way up on my throne, with my crown 
     Eb   Bb
held high-igh.

But I need a girl who will share my world and stay

with me till I die-ie.
      Ab    Bb               Eb    Ab      Eb  Eb7
I'm a king, a king without a queen-eee-eee-een.

BRIDGE:
          Ab                          Gm
I said, a king is just a man if he is here all alone.
Ab                            Gm
A man can be a king if he has love of his own.
       Ab                    Gm
Though I have everything for which a man will die,
F            Fm           Bb
you are much happier than I..(I-I-I-I.)

So, don't envy me all these things you see, just because 
      Eb   Bb
I'm a king-ing.
Eb                  Cm                 Ab
What I need so much is a lovin' touch, it would mean 
     Eb    Bb
everything-ing.
      Ab    Bb               Eb
I'm a king, a king without a queen.
