Key:
[Verse]
Gm Dm Moonbeams and twilight
F Em Dm Sit by the fireside and glow
Gm Dm Casting grand shadows
F Em Dm All on the meadows below [Verse]
Gm Dm But the old king is quiet
Bb C Dm Looks into the fire, I think he knows
Gm Dm That his bubble has burst
Bb C Dm And what's worse is now it shows [Pre-refrão]
F C His old world is changing
Dm C Bb But he don't notice at all
F C His kingdom is crumbling
Dm C Bb C But he can't see it and so, oh
Continues after the ad
[Chorus]
Gm Am Dm Some kings just don't care
Gm Am Dm Happy just to stare and stare
Gm Am And bad things will happen
Gm Am Dm That cause old castles to fall
( Gm Dm F Em Dm )
( Gm Dm F Em Dm ) [Verse]
Gm Dm He could have done something
F Em Dm Inspired a tired old Earth
Gm Dm Done something good, done something right
F Em With which the people could unite
Dm and grow [Pre-refrão]
F C For their old world is changing
Dm C Bb But they don't notice at all
F C Their kingdoms are crumbling
Dm C Bb C But they can't see it and so, oh [Chorus]
Gm Am Dm Some kings just can't say no
Gm Am They'll take till there's nothing
Dm to grow
Gm Am And bad things will happen
Gm Am Dm That cause old castles to fall
Gm Am For its roots are rotten
Gm Am Its old walls and all
Gm Am And bad things will happen
Gm Am That cause old castles
Gm Am Cause old castles
Gm Am Dm Gm Cause old castles to fall
C D Oh
