King of the Hill
Roger McGuinn
Intro: A (for about 4 bars, slowly increasing the volume), then:
F#m
A
Bm
D
F#m
A
L.A.'s asleep
you
C#m
roll up your window
D
The night air is
Bm
cold
The
D
freeway is
E
clear
In a
A
green Gucci bag
Are
C#m
your prized posessions
The
D
jewels of your
Bm
mind
To
D
hold back the
E
fear
Chorus:
And when
F#m
monday comes round
There's a
A
high lonesome sound
And she
Bm
follows you
D
down for the
F#m
kill
And a
F#m
white blinding light
Makes it
A
all seem so right
And
Bm
you feel like a
D
king of the
F#m
hill
The driveway is long
Your princess is lovely
Your servants all wait
For your knock on the door
How many years
Will you crawl through this castle
So satisfied
And still wanting more
Chorus:
The guests have arrived
With all the right faces
But you missed the ball
In that room down the hall
It's sunrise again
The driveway is empty
The crystal is cracked
There's blood on the wall
Chorus x2:
