Great Big Sea – When I Am King (Guitar)

G            D   
 Wake up without a care

     C  
Your head's not heavy

     D
Your conscience clear

G               D
Sins are all forgiven here

C         D
Yours and mine

G                D
Fear is gone without a trace

         C                      D
It's the perfect time, it’s the perfect place

G
Nothing hurtin', nothing sore

D
No one suffers anymore

C
The doctor found a simple cure

D
Just in time

C                   D 
All these things if I were king

            Em          D
Would all appear around me

    G          C         D    G
The world will sing when I am king

    G          C         D    G
The world will sing when I am king

    G                         D
She walks right in, she don't even knock

         C                    D
It's the girl you lost to the high-school jock

    G                  D
She shuts the door and turns the lock

    C          D
And takes your hand

    G               D
She says she always felt a fool

    C                   D
For pickin' the captain over you

    G         
She wonders if you miss her

         D
Says she always told her sister

     C
That you're the best damn kisser

           D
That she'd ever had

C                   D 
All these things if I were king

            Em          D
Would all appear around me

    G          C         D    G
The world will sing when I am king

    G          C         D    G
The world will sing when I am king

D                 C
Daylight waits to shine until

    G           C
The moment you awaken

D      C              G    C
So you never miss the dawn

D  C
No question now

    G                      C
You know which road you're takin'

D                     C                    G       D
Lights all green, the radio plays just the perfect song

          G                       D
Well, the war's been won, all the fights are fought

        C                D
And you find yourself in just the spot

     G                D
In a place where everybody's got

  C       D
A song to sing

     G              D
Just like the final movie scene

    C                    D
The prince will find his perfect queen

    G     
The hero always saves the world

    D
The villains get what they deserve

    C
The boy will always get the girl

     D
When I am king

C                   D 
All these things if I were king

            Em          D
Would all appear around me

    G          C         D    G
The world will sing when I am king

C                   D 
All these things if I were king

            Em          D
Would all appear around me

    G          C         D    G
The world will sing when I am king

    G          C         D    G
The world will sing when I am king

    G              C     D         G
The world will sing when I am king
