I Wonder What The King Is Doing Tonight Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
I [G]know what my people are thinking tonight
[F]As hom[G]e through the
shadows they [C]wander[G]
[C]Everyone [G]smiling [C]in secret delight
[G]As they stare at the castle
[E]and ponder
[Am]Whenev[F]er the [Bb]wind blows this [Eb]way
[Cm]You can almo[Fsus4]st hear ev[Bb]eryone say[Eb]
I wonder what the
King is do[Bb]ing tonight
[Eb]What merriment is the
King [Cm]pursu[Fm]ing tonight?
[Eb]The cand[G]les at the court,
they never burned [A]as [D]bright
I wonder what the
[G]King is [Am]up t[G]o tonight
How [C]goes the final hour as he
[Bb]sees the bridal bower
[Eb]Be ing l[Ab]eg ally and regally prepared?
[Eb]Well[Bb], I'll tell you what the[Eb]
King is [Fm]doing tonight
[Eb]He's [Bbsus4]scared, he'[Bb]s sc[Eb]ared
You mean that a king who [Ab]fought a dragon,
[Eb]Whacked him in two and
fixed his wagon,
Goes to wed in [Ab]terror and dis[Eb]tress?
Yes.
[Ab]A wa[C]rrior who's so cal[F]m in battle,
[C]Even his armour doesn't rattle,
Faces a woman pet[F]rified with [C]fright?
Right.
You [Bb]mean the ap[Eb]palling
clamouring
That sounds like a [Bbsus4]blacksmith hammering
Is merely the banging [Eb]of his royal [Edim]knees?
[F]Please!
You [Eb]won [Bb]der w[Eb]hat the
King is [Bb]wishing tonight
[Eb]He's wishing he were in
[Bb]Scotland [Cm]fishi[Eb]ng t[Bb]o night
[Eb]What [G]occupies his time while
waiting [Em]for his [D]bride
He's [G]searching high and low
[Em]for some place t[D]o [G]hide
And [C]on the expectation,
[F]the sub[Bb]lime anticipation
He [Eb]must [Ab]feel about the
[Fm]wedding night to [Eb]come
[Bb]Well, I'll tell you [Eb]what the
King is [Fm]feeling tonight
He's [Eb]num b, he shakes,
he quivers, he quakes
[Bb]And [Eb]that's what the king i[Bb]s do[Eb]ing tonight
