Riding with the King - Eric Clapton & B.B. King [Intro] A7 B7 [Verse 1]
B7
I dreamed I did a good job and I got well paid

                           E7
Blew it all at the penny arcade

B7
A hundred dollars on a kewpie doll

                                        E7
I guess no white chick is gonna make me crawl
[Chorus 1]
G7                            F7
On a TWA, to the promised land

Every woman, child and man

G7
Gets a cadillac and a diamond ring

A7                                   B7     E7 A7
Dont you know we're riding with the king?
[Verse 2]
B7
Hes on a mission of mercy to the new frontier

                                 E7
Hes gonna check us all on out of here

B7
Up to that mansion on a hill

                                       E7
Where you can get your prescription filled
[Chorus 2]

On a TWA to the promised land

D7                           B7
A red cape and shiny Colt '45

D7                                  B7
I never saw his face but I saw the light

G7
Tonight everybody's getting their angel wings

A7                                    B7
Dont you know we're riding with the king?

B7                                           E7
Well I stepped out of a mirror at ten years old

                             A7
With a suit cut sharp, as a razor and a heart of gold

B7
I had a guitar hanging just about waist high

E7                                          A7
I'm gonna play that thing until the day I die
