Kings Crossing

Em C

G D Am


[Verse]

Em                          C
The King's crossing was the main 
attraction
G        D            Am
Dominoes falling in a chain reaction
    Em                C
The scraping subject ruled by fear 
told me
G             D           Am
Whiskey works better than beer
   Em                    C
The judge is on vinyl, decisions 
aren't final
    G      D         Am
And nobody gets a reprieve
    Em            C
And every wave is tidal
                          G     D 
If you hang around you're going to
     G
 get wet
Em                            C  
I can't prepare for death any 
                 G     Am
more than I already have
Em                    C
All you can do now is watch the 
shelves
    G          D            G
The game looks easy, that's why it 
sells


[Chorus]

G                       D/F#
Frustrated fireworks inside your 
head
             Em                C
Are going to stand and deliver dark 
instead
    G                  D/F#
The method acting that pays my bills
          Em                 C
Keeps the fat man feeding in Beverly
 Hills
Continues after the ad
        G                     D/F#
I got a heavy metal mouth, it hurls 
obscenity
      Em                    C
And I get my check from the trash 
treasury
          G                   D/F#
Because I took my own insides out


[Verse]

Em                      C
It don't matter cause I have no sex 
life
    G              D      Am
And all I wanna do now is inject my 
ex-wife
     Em
I've seen the movie
       C                 G D Am
And I know what happens
    Em
It's Christmas time
        C
And the needle's on the tree
   G        D              Am
A skinny Santa is bringing something
 to me
    Em
His voice is overwhelming
        C
But his speech is slurred
      G         D           G
And I only understand every other 
word


[Chorus]

G                      D/F#
Open your parachute and grab your 
gun
 Em                         C
Float down like an omen, a setting 
sun
G                 D/F#
Read the part and return at five
       Em                       
It's a hell of a role if you can 
 C
keep it alive
            G
But I don't care if I fuck up
    D/F#
I'm going on a date
       Em
With a rich white lady
C
Ain't life great?
G                            D/F#
Gimme one good reason not to do it
(Because I love you)
   Em      C
So do it.

[Bridge]

 Em                      C
This is the place where time 
reverses
    G         D              Am
And dead men talk to all the pretty 
nurses
 Em                      C
Instruments shine on a silver tray

      G          D         G
Don't let me get carried away
      G          D         G
Don't let me get carried away
      G          D        Am
Don't let me be carried away
