"King" by T-Love (Teenage Love)

You can easily work out the rhythm and strumming pattern yourself.
However the lyrics, if you're English like me, are another matter!
I've included the cool bass lick modified so you can play the whole song as solo.

Key:

B7 should be played as:  X21202
G* is another form of G: 320033
C* refers to Cmajor7:    X32000

(Chorus 1)

    Am (x02210@1)          Em (022000@1)       Am (x02210@1)          EmBył (022000@1)zawsze trochę z boku, na bakier trochę był

  Am (x02210@1)            Em (022000@1)          B7W (x21202@1)szkole nikt nie wiedział czym King naprawde żył


(Verse 2)

To było trochę p0źniej już miał przyjaci0łkę Ewę

Mieszkali więc bez ślubu i klepali słodką biedę

Dawali czasem czadu bo lubili lekkie dragi

Znajomych było wielu wieczory i poranki


(Chorus 2)

Uważaj na sąsiad0w swych, bo lubią dawać cynk

Ty wiesz, kto rządzi w mieście tu biskup z komisarzem - king!

(Verse 3)

Tak m0wił mu przyjaciel długi, chudy Lolo

Kiedy wyszli na ulicę zapalić spliffa z colą

Mam dosyć tego miasta czerwono-czarnej maffi

Czy mnie rozumiesz Lolo? Czy wiesz, co mnie trapi?


(Chorus 3)

Tymczasem blada Ewa wytłumaczyć pragnie wszystko,

Bo komisarz wszedł przez okno a spod ł0żka wylazł biskup


(Verse 4)

Co masz w kieszeni King? Komisarz spytał w dzwiach

Wy palicie wciąż to świństwo mieliśmy wiele skarg

A biskup łypie z boku to na Kinga, to na Ewę

Wy żyjecie tu bezbożnie myślicie, że nic nie wiem


(Chorus 4)

Za posiadanie zielska ty dostaniesz dziesięć latek

Za nielegalny związek z nią następnych parę kratek

(Verse 5)

Dziś King siedzi w celi i wspomina dobre dni

Napisał do papieża bardzo długi list

Świateczną wysłał kartkę do samego prezydenta

Lecz nikt o nim już nie m0wi nikt o nim nie pamięta


(Chorus 5)

Był zawsze trochę z boku na bakier trochę był

Właściwie nikt nie wiedział czy King naprawdę żył
