Subject: CRD: King of The Hill (Roger McGuinn)


Here is a song off Roger McGuinn's most recent album (it was done with
Tom Petty).

KING OF THE HILL
----------------

Intro: A (for about 4 bars, slowly increasing the volume), then

F#m A Bm D F#m

A
L.A.'s asleep
C#m
you roll up your window
D Bm
The night air is cold
D E
The freeway is clear
A
In a green Gucci bag
C#m
Are your prized posessions
D Bm
The jewels of your mind
D E
To hold back the fear

Chorus:

F#m
And when monday comes round
A
There's a high lonesome sound
Bm D F#m
And she follows you down for the kill
F#m
And a white blinding light
A
Makes it all seem so right
Bm D F#m
And you feel like a king of the hill


Verse 2:

The driveway is long
Your princess is lovely
Your servants all wait
For your knock on the door
How many years
Will you crawl through this castle
So satisfied
And still wanting more

Chorus:

Verse 3:
The guests have arrived
With all the right faces
But you missed the ball
In that room down the hall
It's sunrise again
The driveway is empty
The crystal is cracked
There's blood on the wall


Chorus x2:


Chords
A x02220 or 577655 (barre 5th fret)
F#m 244222
Bm x24432
D xx0232 or x57775
C#m x46654

"I wanna find myself a girl
Who can show me what laughter means
And we'll fill in the missing colors
In each others paint-by-number dreams" -- Jackson Browne
