a while
                 D            
To be there in velvet, yeah to

give 'em a smile
                  Em           
It's good to get high and never

Em         A               Asus  A
  still dream time to time
 
It's good to be king and have your
own way
Get a feeling of peace at the end
of the day
And when your bulldog barks and
your canary sings
You're out there with winners,
it's good to be king
 
Yeah, I'll be king when dogs get
wings
Can I help it if I still dream
time to time
 
(guitar solo over verse chords)
 
It's good to be king and have your
own world
It helps to make friends, it's
good to meet girls
A sweet little queen, who can't
run away
It's good to be king, whatever it
pays   (no riff)
