[G]It

[Verse 1]
[C]was a rainy nig[Am]ht
[G]The night the king went down,
everybody was crying
It seemed like
Sarnas had sur[Am]rounded the town
[C]Me, I went to the liquor store
And I [Am]bought a bottle of
[G]wine and a bottle of gin
I played his records all night
Drinking with a [Am]close, close friend
Now [Em]some people [G]say that ain't right
[Am]And some[Dm] people say noth[C]ing at all[Am]
But [Em]even [G]in the darkest of night
[Am]You can alwa[Dm]ys hear the king[C]'s call
[F]You can [Dm]always hear the [C]king's call
[Am][G][Am][G][Am][G][C]
Well, they put him away in
Memphis
[Am]Six [G]feet beneath the clay
Everybody was cryin'
Everybody said it was a clay [Am]-grey day
[C]Me, I went to the liquor store
And I [Am]bought another bottle [G]of wine
In another bottle of gin
I played his records all night
And I got [Am]drunk all over again
Now [Em]some people [G]say that ain't [Am]right
And [Dm]some people say [C]not that at [Am]all
But [Em]even [G]in the darkest of [Am]night
You could [Dm]always hear the [C]king's [F]call
You could [Dm]always hear the [C]king's
[Am]call[G][Am][G][Am][G]
[Am]I wonder if you're
[G]lonesome tonight
[Am]I'd [G]rath[Am]er g[G]o o[Am]n[G]
[Am]hearing [G]you lie[Am][G][Am][G]
[Am]Than to go on living without you
[G]Some [Em]people say [G]that ain't right[Am]
And [Dm]some people say [C]nothin' at all
[Am]But even[Em] in th[G]e darkest of night
[Am]You could alwa[Dm]ys hear the king[C]'s call[F]
Ah, you could [Dm]always hear the
[C]king's [Em]call[G][Am]
I [Dm]cried the [C]night the king
[Am]died[Em][G][Am]
[Dm]Cry, then [C]let the king
[Am]die[Em][G][Am]
You could [Dm]always hear the
[C]king's [Am]call[Em][G]
[Am]Cry, [Dm]then let [C]the king
[Am]die[Em][G][Am]
