INTRO
     D
Well down your tools and play the game
       G
of an ordinary fairy tale - at least in there you cannot fail.
     D
Get back to basics and play the child's way.
    G
At least in there you cannot get hurt - no rules and regulations there.

CHORUS
                    D
Cause I could be a king
               G
I could be anything I want
              D
I could be a poem
                  G
I could be some writing on the wall
                A                            G
I could be a super hero - staring down the barrel of a gun
               A                       G
I could be a piece of artwork fading into the sun

It's a shame I know                       but I have to go
D4     G
I've had something planned for weeks and weeks
A   G
   This situation's changed you see.

CHORUS
              D
I could be a king

I could be a piece of artwork fading into the sun. Yes I could be a king!
