[Verse 1]
An[D]d y[Bm]ou[D][G]
[A]see him[D] by the
railroad track each [Bm]morning
[D]Telling stor[G]ies to the hobos
[D]sitting [G]round
[A]And you [D]wonder about the
past that he is hiding
[Bm]And [A]the [G]things that made
his whole [F#m]world tumble [Em]down
[A]And he [F#m]tells them of his
kingdom and his [Bm]riches
An[D]d a[G]ll the sunken treas
[Em]ure that he's [Asus4]found[A]
And he tell[D]s them not to
worry about tomor[Bm]row
[A]That for [G]all of them a
[F#m]new life [D]would be[Em]gin
[A]They would [D]never see
another day of sor[Bm]row
[D]Cause he [G]al ways takes good
care of all [F#m]his fr[Em]iends
[A]And [F#m]you see a look of hope
on all their faces
[Bm]Thou[D]gh they'[G]ve heard the
story [Em]time and time [A]again
And [D]you look into the eyes
of those around [Bm]you
[D]An [G]d you know that they're
believ[D]ing every [A]word
Cause when you [D]look at
Him you're [A]looking in a [Bm]mirror
[D]An d [G]you make yourself believe
[F#m]the things you've he[Em]ard
[A]An d although [F#m]he gets
his stories from a [Bm]bottle
[D]You [G]find yourself believ[Em]ing every [Asus4]word
[A]And you[D] realize that
somehow he's [Bm]a savior
[D]In his [G]tattered clothes to
[D]them [F#m]he is a kin[Em]g
[A]Cause [D]he gives them one
more day that they can [Bm]live for
[D]An [A]d the p[G]romise of
the joy that it will [Em]bring
[A]An d you [F#m]won der what
will happen in the [Bm]morning
When [D]they [G]find that they no
[Em]longer have their [A]king
For his eye[D]s are closed but
he's no [A]longer [Bm]sleeping
[D]And their [G]king will no [D]longer [F#m]be aro[Em]und
[A]And you'll [D]see a look of
fear on all their faces
[Bm]As they see thei[G]r hopes and
[F#m]dreams come tumbling [Em]down
[A]So you [F#m]quickly drink a
story from the [Bm]bottle
[D]An d [G]all at once you [Em]now
possess the [Asus4]crown[A]
And they'll [D]find you by the railroad
track each [Bm]morning[D]
[A]Tellin' [G]stories to the [D]hobos
[F#m]sit tin' round
[Em]And [G]they[A]'ll wonder[D]
about the past that you
are hid[Bm]ing
[D]An d [G]the things that made
your whole world [F#m]tumble
[Em]down [A]an d you'll tell them of
your kingdom and your riches...
