These are the piano chords, in case you want to play it on a piano or

arrange it for guitar.



        Em     D/F#         G/B

King or cripple, what have I become?

             Em                  D/F#           G

Beneath these kingly robes there lies a fragile man.

               Em       D/F#      G/B

What made me a king can sometimes cripple,

             Em       D/F#                 G

All that you give can sometimes rob my innocence



           Em             D/F#         G/B

Why do you let us walk upon a cliff so steep,

            Em          D/F#        G

When deep below there lies a bed of gold,

            Em        D/F#       G/B

And if this should be our battle place,

             Em     D/F#        G

Don't let me fall, don't let us fall.



Em D/F#   G/B          Em D/F#   G

     Keep me, won't you     keep me,

Em D/F#   G/B          Em D/F#   G

     Keep me, won't you     keep me.

          Em               D/F#               G/B

I love to hold the hand of one who healed the blind,

           Em            D/F#           G

And saw the leper run into your arms of love,

             Em       D/F#     G/B

King or cripple, they were the same to you,

           Em                 D/F#               G

You took a broken man and you treated him like a king.

O-oh yeah keep me, won't you      keep me.



[Fade out, then return on cue with a PICK SLIDE.]



SOLO.

Same chords as before. Work out a solo yourself: (I CAN tell you it's in

Em, but it's too mushy to transcribe)



King or, King or, King or cripple!

You took  a broken man and you treated him like a King!



Continue solo to end, repeating the same chords.
