IT'S GOOD TO BE KING- Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

Em Am D Em Em Am D Em

Em Am

It's good to be king, if just for a while

D Em

To be there in velvet, yeah to give 'em a smile

Em Am

It's good to get high and never come down

D Em (riff)

It's good to be king of your own little town

A D G

Yeah the world would swing oh if I were king

C G D C G Em A Asus A

Can I help it if I still dream time to time

It's good to be king and have your own way

Get a feeling of peace at the end of the day

And when your bulldog barks and your canary sings

You're out there with winners, it's good to be king

Yeah, I'll be king when dogs get wings

Can I help it if I still dream time to time

(guitar solo over verse chords)

It's good to be king and have your own world

It helps to make friends, it's good to meet girls

A sweet little queen, who can't run away

It's good to be king, whatever it pays (no riff)
