King Without A Castle Chords by Chris Isaak

King Without A Castle (From the album "The Best of Chris Isaak")
--------------------------------------

Tuning: Standard

Comments: Barring the "Wicked Game" import CD and the countless knock off
compilations, King Without A Castle marks a decided return to Isaak's musical roots on
first greatest hits CD. The song is deceptively simple in it's approach. Two guitars, one
with that classic "surfer" guitar sound that is simply pounding out root notes of the
And a second guitar with just a hint of distortion on the fills and accents. You
even put in a third with a ton of tremlo just to accent the chord changes. Either way
a great song.

{Verse 1}
       G               D
Like a king without a castle,
       Am
like a knight without a home.
            G                     D
I call your name but there's no answer,
        Am
and I'm left here on my own.

A man alone he has no future,
