[Verse 1]
          Bm
There's a king upon the throne

He's the king there all alone
         Em7
He seems troubled and a little sad

Just when you thought that he was glad
          A
To be the ruler of the earth

Could it be, it wasn't worth
          Bm
More than nothing?


         Bm
From the day that he was born

In his side there was a thorn
        Em7
He just couldn't find the key

To be happy and be free
        A
He felt forced to wear the crown

Slowly it will drag him down
     Bm
Into nothing.


[Chorus]
                   Em7                     A
One more drink and you are learning how to fly
                 D                D/C#      Bm
Everything turns perfect once you reach the sky
    Bm/A    Em7                          A
Pop another pill, don't wanna leave your dream
                 D                D/C#   Bm
Forget about the days of when you swam upstream
              Bm/A     Em7                      A
And don't you care too much 'bout what you feel inside
               Bm
It is probably nothing.


[Verse 2]
        Bm
I never told you 'bout my dream

How I saw us as a team
         Em7
We would free the universe

With a chorus and a verse
        A
We were gonna make a change

But like how every dream is strange
          Bm
It's also nothing


         Bm
What was goin' through your mind

What kind of truth did you find
             Em7
What did you see from the top

That would finally make you stop
       A
Did it give peace to your soul

Like you reached your final goal
        Bm
Or just nothing?


[Chorus]
                   Em7                     A
One more drink and you are learning how to fly
                 D                D/C#      Bm
Everything turns perfect once you reach the sky
    Bm/A    Em7                          A
Pop another pill, don't wanna leave your dream
                 D                D/C#   Bm
Forget about the days of when you swam upstream
              Bm/A     Em7                      A
And don't you care too much 'bout what you feel inside
               Bm
It is probably nothing.


[Bridge]
D
On and on, on the road, never-ending
A
Keep a smile up, make sure you're pretending
G                                       F#
It's been a long while since you wait a bit


D
On and on, you're no fish in the water
A
But you're slowly on your way to the slaughter
G                                 F#
Before you know, everything's too late


[Chorus]
                   Em7                     A
One more drink and you are learning how to fly
                 D                D/C#      Bm
Everything turns perfect once you reach the sky
    Bm/A    Em7                          A
Pop another pill, don't wanna leave your dream
                 D                D/C#   Bm
Forget about the days of when you swam upstream
         Bm/A      Em7                  A
And as I hear your song play on the radio
                  D            D/C#      Bm
A certain sadness in me always starts to grow
       Bm/A Em7                   A
Will I ever understand the reason why
                 D              D/C#      Bm
The melody makes me, both wanna smile and cry
    Bm/A    Em7                       A
And all the things you make me feel inside
                 Bm
Are anything but nothing
