King For A Day

• G

    Capo 3 

G         C        F         C 
Everyones creeping up to the money god 
G       C                  F               G 
Putting tongues where they did’nt ought to be 
G           C         F     C 
On stepping stones of human hearts and souls 
G        C       F           G 
Into the land of nothing for free 
C        G   Em            Am 
Well the way that we’re living 
C      G    Em        Am 
Is all take and no giving 
C       G       Em         Am 
There’s nothing to believe in 
    F       Em         Am       G         F 
The loudest mouth will hail the new found way 

To be king for a day 

G         C       F         C 
Everyones licking up to the new king pin 
G         C       F         G 
Trying to get way up with a smile 
G             C              F         C 
Sing for your supper boy and jump to a finger click 
G        C      F         G 
Ain’t my way of living in style 

C         G      Em      Am 
cause the ladder gets longer 
C     G      Em        Am 
And ambition gets stronger 
C      G       Em     Am 
I cant satisfy the hunger 
     F       Em       Am      G      F 
That bad old moon has got you in its sway 

To be king for a day 
C D       
C                                          E                          C 
You’re only here once so you got to get it right (no time to fuss and fight) 
C                                              E             
Cause life dont mean much if measured out with someone else's plight 

C         G   Em           Am 
cause the way that were living 
C      G        Em    Am 
Is all take and no giving 
C       G       Em         Am 
There’s nothing to believe in 
        F   Em         Am       G         F 
The loudest mouth will hail the new found way 

To be king for a day.
