Lời bài hát kèm hợp âm cùng dòng

[Verse 1]
[Csus4]Once carr[C]ied[Csus4] through[C][Csus4]
the cur[C]rent and [Csus4]being swept awa[C]y
The [Csus4]king is in his [C]closet,
he's [F]hiding from today
And [Csus4]though he owns all fo[C]rtune,
this [Csus4]room is where he'll stay[C]
And his [Bb]world is filled with dark[A]ness,
turning [Dm]grey

[Verse 2]
[Esus4]Gazing out the windo[E]w
of the [Esus4]forty-second floor
[E]floor
He is [Esus4]separate from all [E]others,
no one [F]knocks [C]upon his [G]door
[Gm]And it might[Dm] as well be rain[A]ing,
'cause the [C]sunlight hurts [G]his eyes
And his [Dm]ears will never [Eb]hear
the children's [F]cries

[Verse 3]
Once [Csus4]proud and[C] full of passion,
he [Csus4]fought the cause of[C] man
Many [F]people loved [C]his courage,
many [F]followed his command
He [Csus4]changed the old int[C]o the new
and the [Csus4]course of things to[C] come
And [Bb]then one day they
[A]no ticed he was [Dm]gone

[Verse 4]
At [Esus4]first it didn't mat[E]ter,
[Esus4]nobody seemed to[E] care
They [Esus4]all became [A]too busy[E]
to [F]find him [C]any[G]where
So [Dm]no one knew, not ev[A]en him,
the [C]problems he [G]would find
On the [Dm]day he journeyed
[Eb]deep into his [F]mind

[Verse 5]
[F]I close my eyes, I go far away
[Bb]Away from the battlefield
[Ab]In my dreams, we[F#]ll
Here I will enjoy it
Where [Fsus4]innocence [F]plays with
all the laughing [Db]children
The [Eb]kind who are crying [F#]right now

[Verse 6]
[F#]A taste [C]of freedom from the [F]pain
Of [Bb]everything here I see
[Ab]Life is sweet but I [F#]took it all for granted
And [Fsus4]now I don[F]'t know
if I could ever tell [Db]you
Just [Eb]what we permit, we [Gb]allow

[Verse 7]
[Fm]Al low me to forge[Db]t the life,
I've [Ab]made my own
I've held this [Cm]nation in [Db]my hand
and yet it's [Ab]not my home
Oh, [Fm]allow me just one [Db]answer
and one [Ab]reason why
Why this [Cm]refugee of the
[Db]family [Eb]of man must die?
Tell me [Gb]why[Gm]

[Verse 8]
[Csus4]Daydreams filled his night-times,
[C]and and [Csus4]night-dreams filled filled [C]his days
Con[Csus4]fusion and uncerta[C]inty,
a [F]puzzled [Fsus4]mind of h[F]aze
You [Csus4]thought he was so p[C]owerful
and [Csus4]set upon his ways[C]
Well, he [Bb]left us all to fol
[A]low through [Dm]this maze

[Verse 9]
I [Esus4]heard the[A] king was dyi[E]ng,
I [A]heard the king was [E]dead
And [Esus4]with him died the chro[E]nicles
that [F]no one [C]ever [G]read
[Dm]The closet's fully e[A]mpty now,
[C]it's occupied by [G]none
I'll [Dm]draw the drapes, now [Bb]destiny [Eb]is done[F]
