A7 D A7 D The courtyard is empty -- and the drawbridge is high D G D G My jester is singing his saddest goodbye G F# D B7 I'm king of a lonely castle E7 A7 Cause the queen of my heart is gone
[Verse 2]
D A7 D My chargers are searching -- the far country side D7 G D7 G Her ladies in waiting their lonely hearts cry G F# D B7 I'm king of a lonely castle E7 A7 D Cause the queen of my heart is gone
[Chorus]
A7 D But I don't really have a castle A7 D And I don't have a throne to ascend G G#m D B7 But I did have a queen now she's gone and it seems E7 A7 D That it's best to pretend with a storybook end G F# D B7 And I'm king of a lonely castle E7 A7 D Cause the queen of my heart is gone
