A
(Riff)

            B
I dreamed I had a good job and I got well paid

                           E
Blew it all at the penny arcade

B
A hundred dollars on a kewpie doll

                                         E                  B
I guess no white chick is gonna make me crawl (that's right)

     G                      G F# F E
On a TWA, to the promised land

      G                             A
Gets a Cadillac and a diamond ring

                                     B     E  A
Don't you know we're riding with the king?

           B
He's on a mission of mercy to the new frontier

                                   E
He's gonna check us all on out of here

B
Up to that mansion on a hill

                                     E                   B
Where you can get your prescription filled (any kind of pill)

           G                     G F# F E
Well, on a TWA to the promised land

G                                   A
  Don't you just love the way he sings

                                     B     E  A
Don't you know we're riding with the king?

                      B     E  A
We're ridin' with the king

D                            B
A red cape and a shiny Colt 45

D                                    B
I never saw his face but I saw the light

G                                        A
Tonight everybody's getting their angel wings

                                     B
Don't you know we're riding with the king?

(B)
Well, I stepped out of a mirror at ten years old

            E                                A
With a suit cut sharp as a razor and a heart full of gold

          B
I had a guitar hanging just about waist high

           E                         A
I'm gonna play that thing until the day I die

B                          E    A
     We're ridin' with the king

B                                         E    A
     Don't you know we're ridin' with the king

                      B                              E   A
We're ridin' with the king ... we're ridin' with the
