A F#m
It was a rainy night the night the king went down
E F#m
Everybody was crying it seemed like sadness had surrounded the town
A
Me I went to the liquor store
F#m
And I bought a bottle of wine and a bottle of gin
E
I played his records all night
F#m
Drinking with a close, close friend
C#m F#m
Now some people say that it ain't right
A F#m
And some people say nothing at all
C#m F#m
But even in the darkest of night
A D
You can always hear the king's call
A F#m
You can always hear the king's call
!! There you go ! It is the same pattern all along the song
(additional lyrics below). Have fun ! Saronis !!
Well they put him away in Memphis
Six feet beneath the clay
Everybody was crying
Everybody said it was a plain grey day
Me I went to the liquor store
And I bought another bottle of wine and another bottle of gin
I played his records all night
And I got drunk all over again
Now some people say that it ain't right
And some people say nothing at all
But even in the darkest of night
You could always hear the king's call
You could always hear the king's call
This verse is sung during a long solo.
Listen to the song to get how to sing it ! Or you can skip it !!
I wonder if you're lonesome tonight
And I'd rather go on hearing your lies
Than to go on living without you
Now some people say that it ain't right
And some people say nothing at all
But even in the darkest of night
You could always hear the king's call
You could always hear the king's call
You could always hear the king's call
