God Save The King
Phil Pritchett
Beginning (play twice): G-F-C
D-C-G
G D
Another night in another town in another smoky place
D Am C
Me and the Full Band were sitting backstage looking at the
D
face
G D
Of the lead singer of the opening act who had just left the stage
Am C D
I saw youthful greatness in his eyes despite his age
And he said,
Take a picture why don�t ya�, many others have done the same
Cause I was once called Elvis Presley, but now Jackson is my name
We sat there in silence as reality set in
And I had so many things to ask him and didn�t know where to begin
Chorus:
Am
God save the king
Em G D
He said its not as easy as it looks
C G
To live as royalty
Am
God save the king
Em G D
He said I never died I was just tired
C G
Of living in Tennessee
(Go into beginning)
His voice was undeniably of the man that he claimed to be
He wore a Poor David�s Pub t-shirt and a faded pair of jeans
The smell of a bar at midnight, man this is what it�s all about
You know I tried to get back for years, but the Colonel sold me out
Chorus
(There�s a little bridge that�s just G and C back and forth about three times)
Chorus
(Go into beginning)
