We Could Be Kings

   B
So this is rejection
         G#m
 And it's bringing you down
    E
 He told you that he'd find work 
soon
                            F#
 Then he stopped coming around
   B
 That was the summer of sweet nights
                        G#m
 He used to take you for rides
                         E
 But it all changed in the backseat
    F#
 He came inside

PDC HORUS
           G#m  F#      E
 Well he's seen enough to know
    B      G#m  F#             E
 He's old enough to know what's 
                 B
right from wrong
   G#m         F#    E     B    
 I know how hard it is to see 
    F#
things through

CHORUS

B               E
 Oh no did it rip you apart?
             G#m
 To be told we could be kings
                E                  
 When we were damned from the start
F#

B              E
 Oh no did it rip you apart?

              G#m          F#
 They told us we could be kings
                E          F#     
 When we were damned, damned from 
            B
the start

VERSE
 You told him you loved him
 But pushing come to show
 There were no easy answers
 Mixing money and blood
 He was too young to know better
 And you were unemployed
 The sergeant promised a cake walk
 But then he got deployed
PDC HORUS
 I've seen enough, enough to know
 It's not about which side you're on
 I know how hard it is to keep it in
CHORUS
 Oh no did it rip you apart?
 To be told we could be kings
 When we were damned from the start
 I know that it rips you apart
 They told us we could be kings
 When we were damned, damned from 
the start

BRIDGE
B                         E
 We've been living to the left of 
the dial
        G#m                        
 Hoping drinks and denial will keep
     E
 us here
B                       E
 I'm not promising you some bright 
side
                G#m
 We're trying to break your stride
                   E
 But you asked me, you asked me

                   B
 He was gone in an instant
                        G#m
 They say nobody was spared
                        E
 Not gonna tell you he loved you
                        F#
 Not gonna tell you he cared

PDC HORUS
 Well I've seen enough, enough to 
know
 Sometimes with the truth you gotta 
let it go
 I know how hard it is to keep it in
CHORUS
 I won't go and rip you apart
 And tell you, you could be king
 I don't wanna break your heart
 I won't go and rip you apart
 So open wide and you'll sing
E
 Cause we're all damned
G#m             F#
 Open wide and you'll see
                E           F#    
 Cause we're all damned, damned 
            B         G#m F# E B 2x
from the start
(B)                               
 We're damned from the start
      G#m F# E B
