None of them
Okkervil River
A King and a Queen
Tabbed by Jason Kientz
****** Capo 5 *********
Intro
C Em7add6 Am Am7/G F G F G
(3) (2) (3)
(So for ease, I'm only going to write Em7 instead of Em7add6)
(Every time there is the C Em7 Am Am7/G progression, play
it like the intro)
C Em7 Am Am7/G
If you want to see, and be seen, then be seen
F G
Your dress is dark red and
C Em7 Am Am7/G
your opening eyes, bright green, make a scene,
F G
but dont lie on your bed,
F G
laid out like you're dead,
Am G
Because honey you're murdering me...
(musical interlude is intro twice, try to hit the root notes harder)
C Em7 Am Am7/G
Be a little sheep learning, who'll shear, and who'll feed,
F G
The hands come and they leave,
C H Am Am7/G
Be hands holding a knife, be a being, on two feet,
F G
With his heart tremble-in'
F G
butcherin' for a king,
Am G
He believes in though he's never seen... la da da da
(musical interlude)
F Em
Be the princess in that stone tower,
Am G Am
Crying for that handsome butchers plight,
G F G
And as some princess might she still calls him a knight
C Em7 Am Am7/G
but the best thing for you, would be queen, so be queen,
F G
you're all that I need,
C Em7 Am Am7/G
Though I know that it never can be, I'd be pleased,
F G
To post your decrees,
F G
to Fall at your knees,
Am F G
to name all you streets and to sit down and weep
Am F G
and you're carried back through them and set down to sleep
Am F G
And to lie by you side for sublime centruies
Am G F G
till we crumble to dust, when were crushed by a single sun
(outro same as intro but softer)
C Em7 Am Am7/G
beam.
(repeat intro till you feel like stopping and then end it on a C)
