[Ebm] [Ab]
[Db] [Gb]
[Ab] [Gb] 1577 [Fm] there was born
[F] A king of architectural man
[Ab] Placed in dire [Gb] peril
[Fm] He will stand tall and [Db] erect [F] in retrospect
All I [Gb] do is run [Ebm] tonight
Even [Fm] twice a sweet but half [Bbm] as bright
I [Ebm] did not [Ab] intend to [Db] [Gb] impersonate him
If I didn't know [Ebm] my luck
Listen [Fm] to the clock's last [Bbm] ticking tock
I [Ebm] shall sing [Ab] at last
Like [Db] I'm a question [Gb] never asked
[Ab] The king was so good [Gb]
-natured
[Fm] Oh no not [Bbm] the [Ab] slightest
But [F] quite the opposite
[Ab] Thus grieving though he would [Gb] feel the pains
[Fm] He too [F] is queen [Ab] as me
[F] The anarchy is [Ebm] gone

Lest [Fm] it would have made my feelings [Bbm] stand
Could [Ebm] it [Ab] possibly
Were [Db] not thanks to [Gb] you in the end
