Excellent song - this sounds about right to me.....
King of Spain
CHORUS
F# B F#
Once I was the King of Spain
F# B F#
now I eat humble pie
F# B F#
Oh... my unspeakable wife, Queen Lisa
F# B F#
now I eat humble pie
F# B F#
I'm telling you I was the King of Spain
F# B F#
now I eat humble pie
F# C# F#
And now I work at the Pizza Pizza
1 2 3 4!
F# B F# B F#
F# B F# C# F#
VERSE
F# B
Royalty, lord it looked good on me
B F# C# F#
Buried in silk in the royal boudoir or going nuclear free
F# B
Or playing Crokinole with the Princess of Monaco
B F# C# F#
Telling my jokes to the OPEC leaders, getting it all on video
CHORUS
F# B F#
Once I was the King of Spain
F# C# F#
now I eat humble pie
F# B F#
A palatial palace, that was my home
F# C# F#
now I eat humble pie
F# B F#
I'm telling you I was the King of Spain
F# C# F#
now I eat humble pie
F# C# F#
And now I vacuum the turf at SkyDome
F# B F#
Once he was the King of Spain
VERSE
F# B
I can't wait, I'm lowering interest rates; my people say:
B F# C# F#
"King, how are you such a genius? There's a roof overhead and food on our plates!"
F# B
It's laissez-faire, I don't even give a care
B F# C# F#
Let's make Friday part of the weekend and give every new baby a chocolate eclair
CHORUS
F# B F#
Once I was the King of Spain
F# C# F#
now I eat humble pie
F# B F#
Hey Clinton! Hey Yeltsin! Got problems? You phone me!
F# C# F#
now I eat humble pie
F# B F#
I'm telling you I was the King of Spain
F# C# F#
now I eat humble pie
F# C# F#
Now the Leafs call me up to drive the Zamboni
F# B F#
Once he was the King of Spain
Solo
Ladies and Gentlemen, I introduce to you the international orchestra!
B F# C# D#m B F#
F#
Now some of you might be wondering how I came to be living in Canada
after being royalty in Spain. Should I tell them, guys?
Tell us, King!
VERSE
F# B
You see late one night when the palace was asleep
B F# C# F#
Out of my royal chambers and into the garden I creep
F# B
And I wait till the appointed time, when the moon is lighting the pitch
B F# C# F#
At which point my peasant friend, who looks just like me arrives and we make a switch!
F# B
Prince and pauper, junior and whopper, world made up of silver and copper
B F# C# F#
Under my own volition, I took a change of position
F# B
So next time you drool in the pizza line
B F#
Remember, slower pizza's more luscious: the King of Spain never rushes!
CHORUS/ENDING
F# B F#
Once I was the King of Spain
F# C# F#
now I eat humble pie
F# B F#
I was looking for offhanded ways to improve us
F# C# F#
now I eat humble pie
F# B F#
I'm telling you I was the King of Spain
F# C# F#
now I eat humble pie
F# C# F#
And now I'm jamming with Moxy Fruvous!
F# B F#
Once he was the King of Spain
