[D][Dm][F]

[Verse 1]
[C]Support you[G]r local emperor[D]
[Dm]Pay [F]him [C]tribut[G]e every time[D][F][C]
Let [G]it be known he holds your [D]fate[Dm][F]
[C]From his fingertips sha[G]ll
flow [D]the wine[Dm][F]
[C]Tell him when he speak
[G]s the air i[Am]s sweet[F]
[C]Wherever he walks[G]
rose beds be [D]laid[Dm][F]
[C]So that he may al [G]ways
feel [D]secure[F][C]
In the vast [G]em pire that [D]he's made[Dm][F]

[Verse 2]
[C]But could you [E]tell me what
[F]he's ever done [G]for you?
[F]I'm not the one that [C]needed an army
[F]I'm not the one tha[C]t needed respect
[F]I'm not the one [C]that hopes
they'll remember
[F]I'm not the one [C]they'll likely forget
It seems [F]one's going
to walk
Where he's will[C]ing to walk
And with [F]the ears of a bat
And the [C]eyes of a hawk
You can [F]see in the end
It's just a [C]little bit of talk
But [F]a rodent's always looking
For [C]some cat he can stalk
[F]To meow [C]for him,
to [F]meow [C]for him...
[F][C]

[Verse 3]
[F][C]
Remember once [G]when
you were [D]young[Dm][F]
[C]It really was not all[G] that long ago[D][C][G]
[C]You reached out your han[G]d
and it was [D]met[Dm][F]
[C]If you let your hea[G]rt will tell you so[D][Dm][F]
[C]So bow your hea[G]d don't meet
his [Am]eye [F]s[C]
When royalty [G]speaks
you then [D]reply[Dm][F]
[C]Someday he [G]may find his throne is [Dm]cold[F]
[C]Someday he may chance
[G]to wonder [D]why[F]
[C]But could you tell

[Verse 4]
[E]me what
[F]he's ever done for you?
[G]I'm not [F]the one [C]that needed an army
[F]I'm not the one that [C]needed respect
[F]I'm not the one that hopes
[C]they'll remember
[F]I'm not the one they'll [C]likely forget
It seems [F]one's going
to walk
Where he's will[C]ing to walk
[F]And with the ears of a bat
And the [C]eyes of a hawk
You can [F]see in the end
It's just a [C]little bit of talk
But [F]a rodent's always looking
For [C]some cat [F]he can stalk[C]
To [F]meow for [C]him, [F]to [C]meow for[F][C][F][C]
