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 

C  G  C  G  C  G 

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
