The King Is Dead

Am Em Am Em C Em C Em Fmaj7 Fm Em C I have not come to worship you Am F Or lay flowers at your throne Em C I have not come to plead or beg Am F Or to claim what is my own C Bb Oh I know you are the King C Bb And you say your word is Law Em C I have come to cut you down Am F And to leave your body dead Em C You do not mean so much to me Am F Nor that crown upon your head C Bb You are just the same as me C Bb You are only flesh and blood Em F G Am And the time has come for you to die Am Em Am Em C Em C Em Fmaj7 Fm Em C And now you plead, please spare my life Am F You know I'm the chosen one Em C I don't believe what you've decreed Am F And I must do what must be done C Bb You say you're the only king C Bb But your words just fall like rain Em F G Am Em And the time has come for you to die
