Chords for Keb' Mo' - Riley B. King - Festival International 2011, Lafayette, Louisiana

He's a [Eb] king, _ with a castle on top
And every [G] night he plays
[Cm] His body [Bb] he counts
For the [Eb] people he loves
The one thing he says
_ [Ab] Everybody knows
[F] _ _ _
He'll never [Eb] [Eb] forget
His stories of youth
Tell [Cm] him to [G] rise
_ Men must be [Eb] broken
And [Ab] the people [Eb] all say
For the way he sheds
_ [Ab] Everybody [F] knows _ _
Oh, [Bb] _ he'll _ [Ab] _ _
_ never forget
The flood of his _ [Cm] father's years
_ Great are his years He'll remember
For he'll [F] live
[Eb] Like the people see
_ By and _ [Ab] by
_ [Bb] By [Ab] and by
[Eb] _ And the good
[Eb] _ [Cm] Love's like the [G] people
[Cm] For you'll strike
[Ab] What the people [Eb] say
[B] And the way [Cm] you'll feel
_ [Ab] Watching him with [F] the sea
_ _ [Ab] Well, in the heart
[Eb] _ [Ab] Of a little [Eb] purple mouth
[Cm] There's a little [G] thing inside
And it looks inside
[Ab] Through the love of the [Gm] world
[G] And a song he [Cm] might sing
[Ab] Will give him
Every [F] break
_ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] _ [Ab] The flood [Eb] of emotion
While he's thinking
In the cage of the ocean
[Ab] For [F] you'll do
[Bb] Like the people [Cm] see

When we look out in the cage

When nobody's holding
_ [Bb] Go tell him [Ab] what to do
