King Of Kings Chords

(ver. 1)
Jimmy Cliff
This song was originally by Jimmy Cliff, and then covered by dozens of others.
For some reason it's 2009 and nobody's even posted the lyrics for this song, so here goes.


      D         A           D
Lion says "I am king, and I reign"

       D                      A
Lion says "I am king in this reign"

          D                         G
No more kings must be in this backyard

      D           A           D
Lion says, "I am king and I reign."


Elephant says "I am king 'cause I'm strong"

Giraffe says "I am king 'cause my neck is long"

There's no doubt that they are all wrong

Still lion says "I am king 'cause I'm double-strong."


(BRIDGE)
             A                                 D
I'm king of kings, and lord of lords, in this land

              A                            D
No more back talk, any of you, 'cause I'm king

                                  G

      D           A            D
Lion says, "I am king, and I reign."

(The site wants proof that Jimmy Cliff is actually a recognised musician, so here's a 
even Bob Marley covered this, so I think it's worth posting.)
