My Kingdom

Intro:  G  D C x4  maybe slide an A note to B to mimic the keyboard

verse begins with 4 empty bars

(GGGG  C G)

 G                               C       G
I chop and I change and the mystery thickens
G                                    C          G
There's blood on my hands and you want me to listen
G                                            C     G
To brawn and to brain when the truth's in the middle
G                               C    G
Born of the grain like all good ridd-les

There is a G chord played by a second guitar building to the chorus

Chorus:
    D                     C
B-b-burn the skin off and climb the roof top
G                 Gsus4  G (slide a note from A to B on the top e string)
Thy will be done
    D                     C
B-b-bite the nose off and make it the most of

Your king- kingdom kingdom kingdom

Second Verse:

(4 empty bars again)

You kill when you talk and the enemy weakens
Your words start to walk when you're not even speaking
If my heart is a war it's soldiers are bleeding
If my heart is a war it's soldiers are dead

Chorus:
    D                     C
B-b-burn the skin off and climb the roof top

Thy will be done
    D                     C
B-b-bite the nose off and make it the most of
     G                        (slide a note from B to D on the top e string)
Your king- kingdom kingdom kingdom


Solo over G and C
Do do do do do do do, do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do, do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do, do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do, do do do do do do do
 ooohawoo

3rd Verse:

gets quieter towards the end

I've lost and I've gained and while I was thinking
You cut off my hands when I wanted to twist
If you know how to dance to boney maroney
He's doing the ballet on both of his wrists

Chorus:
    D                     C
B-b-burn the skin off and climb the roof top
G                 Gsus4  G (slide a note from A to B on the top e string)
Thy will be done
    D                     C
B-b-bite the nose off and make it the most of
     G                        (slide a note from B to D on the top e string)
Your ki-ki-ki kingdom

2nd guitar solo over G and C

(You're a bitter malignous person)
(And the death is well overdue)
(You suck the blood that kills you)
(You kiss the hand that hates you)
