G (320003@1)         C (x32010@1)Lion in my winter.
G (320003@1)                 DI'm (xx0232@1)a lion with no crown.

G (320003@1)                         C (x32010@1)You wanna make me big man , a star on a screen.
G (320003@1)                         DSome (xx0232@1)kind of James Brown or something in between.
But when I ask for money you smother me in charms.
I can't live on glory when your bendin' both my arms.
 
[no guitar]
I , I was a lion in winter.
And man I had friends for miles around.

G (320003@1)                CI (x32010@1)was a lion in my winter.
  G (320003@1)                   DWhat (xx0232@1)good's a lion Lord, without a crown. 
 
You're living in a cave man ,upon your marble throne.
You think you own the heavens, but you've got to be alone.
You know I prayed for sunshine, a woman with my name.
I don't want to live man, you gave away the game.
 
[no guitar]
I, I was a lion in winter.
And man I had friends for miles around.

I was a lion in my winter.
What good's a lion Lord , without a crown.
