The Proclaimers' version may use different chords but then you might want to
transpose it for your voice anyway.
Here we go (taken from a greatest hits collection):
(Roger Miller)
Bb Eb F Bb Trailer for sale or rent, rooms to let, fifty cents, Eb F No phone, no pool, no pets, I ain't got no cigarettes, ah but Bb Eb F Bb Two hours of pushing broom buys an eight by twelve fourbit room, Eb F Bb I'm a man of means by no means, King of the Road Bb Eb F Bb Third box car midnight train, destination Bangor, Maine, Eb F Bb Old worn out suit and shoes, I don't pay no union dues, I smoke Eb F Bb Old stogies I have found, short, but not too big around, Eb F Bb I'm a man of means by no means, King of the Road B E I know every engineer on every train, F# B All of the children and all of their names E And every handout in every town F# And ev'ry lock that ain't locked when
No one's around I sing ...
B E F# B Trailer for sale or rent, rooms to let, fifty cents, E F# No phone, no pool, no pets, I ain't got no cigarettes, ah but B E F# B Two hours of pushing broom buys a eight by twelve fourbit room, E F# B I'm a man of means by no means, King of the Road
