God Save the King Phil Pritchett
Beginning (play twice): G-F-C
[D-C-G]
[G]Another night in another town in another [D]smoky place
[D]Me and the Full B[Am]and were sitting backstage looki[C]ng at the
[D]face
Of the le[G]ad singer of the opening act who had jus[D]t left the stage
I saw you[Am]thful greatness in his e[C]yes despite his ag[D]e
And he said,
Take a picture why don’t ya’, many others have done the same
Cause I was once called Elvis Presley, but now Jackson is my name
We sat there in silence as reality set in
And I had so many things to ask him and didn’t know where to begin
Chorus:
[Am]God save the king
[Em]He said its not[G] as easy as it looks[D]
[C]To live as royalt[G]y
[Am]God save the king
[Em]He said I never d[G]ied I wa[D]s just tired
[C]Of living in Tenn[G]essee
(Go into beginning)
His voice was undeniably of the man that he claimed to be
He wore a Poor David’s Pub t-shirt and a faded pair of jeans
The smell of a bar at midnight, man this is what it’s all about
You know I tried to get back for years, but the Colonel sold me out
Chorus
(There’s a little bridge that’s just G and C back and forth about three times)
Chorus
(Go into beginning)
Think I got it. If not send the right ones. Guarantee you this is the only tab
