Am 

there was a black swan outside the palace 
it was appointed by the king 
and people took it as a sign that he needed more time 
but you said "I ain't afraid of no black bird!" 

Am    G F   G Am 
Oh oh oh oh oh oh... 

Am 

there was a rumor of a ghost in the bedroom, 
hanging in and around the bed 
but by the time the moon rose, you had taken off your clothes 
and had the pillow under your head 

Am    C F   G Am 
Oh oh oh oh oh oh... 

Am 

there was the face you saw above you 
in the fever of a hot black dream 
but it was made out of paper and glue 
and you were hoping for something a little more realistic 
you were hoping for the head of the queen 

Am    G F   G Am 
Oh oh oh oh oh oh... 

Am 

my heart is a kingdom 
where the king is a heart 
and my heart is king 
my heart is king 
and my heart is a kingdom 
where the king is a heart 
and my heart is king 
the king of hearts

there was the matador who said he would have you 
                                       C 
if you could only give it up and walk away 
         E                   F 
he has carved out an avenue for you 
           G              Am 
from the palace to the palisades 
E                     F 
and now it's half destroyed 
                     C 
and you are half destroyed 
             E                       F 
i see you running down a washed out road 
             G                  Am 
i see you running between the dream and the void

and my heart is king

you've got mascara all over your bedsheets

you've got mascara all over your clothes 
              E                            F 
you've got mascara making broken hearted shapes on your face

and you have yet to see the ghost
