King Of Pain chords by The Police

Guitar chords with lyrics

Title:  King of Pain
Artist:  The Police
Songwriter:  Sting
My Name:  Craig Quenneville (e0fvyczs@mail.erin.utoronto.ca)

this makes the cut.  This is only a bunch of chords and lyrics,
sorry, no tabs.  The solo is pretty easy, but no guitar with
me right now.  Just play around with the bottom E and B strings
and you'll figure it out!
