  			Very easy song.  Basically same chords throughout w/ minor variations.
You can play E5 A5 B5 and F#5 if it's easier for you. 
 
Intro: E B A B x2 (listen to get the beat) 
 
E              B             A      B 
I never minded calling You a King 
E                          A 
If that meant that I could count on You 
    A  (pause)           
To give me everything 
   E                A 
I never thought to ask You 
   F#m            B 
I always thought You knew 
       E             B         A       B 
It was never my intention to question You 
 
You never minded calling me a child 
Well, I guess that's how I acted all the while 
But You live through every tantrum, You see through every lie 
Though they seem to be more common 
I just wanted You to know why oh why 
 
E   B      A      B          E    B    A     B 
Ahhhhhhh, Unforgetful You, Ahhhhhhh, unforgetful 
E    B     A      B          E    B     A       B 
Ahhhhhhh, Unforgetful You, Ahhhhhhh, so unforgetful 
 
You never minded giving us the stars 
Then showing us how blind and unaware of You we are 
You painted me a picture and showed me how to see 
Though I just won't behold it 
Unless it pertains to me... 
 
(Chorus) 
 
E|--3-----------------------------3---------------------------------- 
A|----------5-4-3-------------------------5-4-3---------------------- 
D|-----5--3--------5--3-3b-3-0-------5--3--------5------------------- 
G|-----5--3--------5--3-3b-3-0-------5--3--------5-------------------

G|-----5--3--------5--3-3b-3-0-------5--3--------5------------------- 
B|---------------------------------------------------5b~~~~~5-------- 
e|---------------------------------------------------6-~~~~~6-------- 
 
Then it ends w/ an improvision of the chorus that has the same EBAB progression.
Not too hard.
