G                 C
I met up with the king
Em               G
He confessed his body was burning
G                 C
I met up with the king
    Em       G
His body had begun to rot
       C    Em                  G
And he said don't think less of me
              C        Em        G
I'm still the same man I used to be

    C         G
But no one believed him
C         G
No one believed him

G                    C
I once knew a pretty girl
    Em         G
And she was in love with the world
G                     C
And she loved a young man
Em                     G
Who loved her body but never saw her mind
   C    Em                 G
He took everything she had kept
                 C          Em            G
And then he took everything else that was left

C          G
But no one believed her
   C      G
No one believed her

G                    C
I feel just like the king
     Em          G
As I fall on the muddy ground
G                    C
I feel just like you gal
        Em
There's people thinking
     G
They know something now
     C            Em          G
Well I don't know anything at all
            C
And we mean nothing to history
           Em   G
Well thank God

G          C          G
So tell me do you believe me?
C         G
Do you believe me?
C         G
I bet you don't
C         G
I bet you won't
