Verse 1
(Csus4) (C major) (Csus4) (C major) Once (Csus4) carried through
the cur (C major) rent and (Csus4) being swept away (C major)
The (Csus4) king is in his closet, (C major)
he's (F major) hiding from today
And (Csus4) though he owns all (C major) fortune,
this (Csus4) room is where he'll stay (C major)
And his (B flat major) world is filled with dark (A major) ness,
turning grey (D minor)
Verse 2
(Esus4) Gazing out the win (E major) dow
of the (Esus4) forty-second floor
floor (E major)
He is (Esus4) separate from all (E major) others,
no one (F major) knocks upon (C major) his (G major) door
(G minor) And it (D minor) might as well be (A major) raining,
'cause the (C major) sunlight hurts his eye (G major) s
And his (D minor) ears will never (E flat major) hear
the children's (F major) cries

Verse 3
Once (Csus4) proud and full (C major) of passion,
he (Csus4) fought the cause of man (C major)
Many (F major) people loved (C major) his courage,
many (F major) followed his command
He (Csus4) changed the old in (C major) to the new
and the (Csus4) course of things to come (C major)
And (B flat major) then one day they
(A major) no ticed he was (D minor) gone
Verse 4
At (Esus4) first it didn't (E major) matter,
(Esus4) nobody seemed to care (E major)
They (Esus4) all be (A major) came too (E major) busy
to (F major) find him (C major) anywhere (G major)
So (D minor) no one knew, not (A major) even him,
the (C major) problems he would find (G major)
On the (D minor) day he journeyed
(E flat major) deep into his (F major) mind
Verse 5
(F major) I close my eyes, I go far away
(B flat major) Away from the battlefield
(A flat major) In my dreams, (F sharp major) well
Here I will enjoy it
Where (Fsus4) innocence (F major) plays with
all the laughing (D flat major) children
The (E flat major) kind who are crying right now (F sharp major)
Verse 6
(F sharp major) A taste of freedom (C major) from the pain (F major)
Of (B flat major) everything here I see
(A flat major) Life is sweet but I (F sharp major) took it all for granted
And (Fsus4) now I don't know (F major)
if I could ever tell (D flat major) you
Just (E flat major) what we permit, we allow (G flat major)
Verse 7
(F minor) Al low me to forget (D flat major) the life,
I've (A flat major) made my own
I've held this (C minor) nation in my hand (D flat major)
and yet it's (A flat major) not my home
Oh, (F minor) allow me just one (D flat major) answer
and one (A flat major) reason why
Why this (C minor) refugee of the
(D flat major) family of man (E flat major) must die?
Tell me why (G flat major) (G minor)

Verse 8
(Csus4) Daydreams filled his night-times,
(C major) and and (Csus4) night-dreams filled filled his days (C major)
Con (Csus4) fusion and uncer (C major) tainty,
a (F major) puzzled mind (Fsus4) of haze (F major)
You (Csus4) thought he was so powerful (C major)
and (Csus4) set upon his (C major) ways
Well, he (B flat major) left us all to fol
(A major) low through this maze (D minor)
Verse 9
I (Esus4) heard the king (A major) was (E major) dying,
I (A major) heard the king was (E major) dead
And (Esus4) with him died the (E major) chronicles
that (F major) no one (C major) ever (G major) read
The (D minor) closet's fully (A major) empty now,
(C major) it's occupied by (G major) none
I'll (D minor) draw the drapes, now (B flat major) destiny (E flat major) is (F major) done
