King of the World

Steely Dan

[Am7] Hello [Bm7] one and[E]all

[Am7] Was it [Bm7] you I[E]used to know?

[Am7] Can't you [Bm7] hear me[E]call

[Am7] On this [Bm7] old ham[E]radio?

[Am7] All I've [Bm7] got to[E] say

[Am7] I'm [Bm7] alive and [E] feeling fine

[Am7] Should you[Bm7] come [E] my way

[Am7] You can[Bm7] share my [E] poison wine

[Bm7]No marigolds in the promised [CMaj7] land,

[C]There's a hole in the [G] ground where they[D]used to grow

[Bm7]Any man left on the[CMaj7] Rio Grande

[Em7]Is the[D]king of the world as far as[A]I know

I won't take your bread

I don't need no helping hand

I can't be no savage

I can't be no highwayman

Show me where you are

You and I can will this day

Driving in my car

Through the ruins of Santa Fe

[Chorus]

[Instrumental break]

[Am7] [Bm7] [E] [Am7] [Bm7] [CMaj7] [FMaj7] [Em7] [EbMaj7] [Dm7] [DbMaj7] [Cm7] [F]

[Am7I'm reading[Em7]last years papers

[Am7]Although[Em7]I don't know why

[Am7]Assassins, cons and[Em7]rapers

[C]Might as[G]well[A]die

When you come around

No more pain and no regrets

Watch the sun go brown

Smoking cobalt cigarettes

There's no need to hide

Taking things the easy way

If I stay inside

I might live till Saturday

No marigolds in the promised land

There's a hole in the ground where they used to grow

Any man left of the Rio Grande

Is the king of the world

King of the world as far as I know

You know it is.....THANKS! (leroy777@mindspring.com)
