BmPlay me old king F#cole
EThat I may join with F#you,
All your hAearts now seem so fDar from me
It hardly seems to Amatter now.
BmAnd the nurse will tell you F#lies
Of a kEingdom beyond the sF#kies.
But I am lAost within this haDlf-world,
It hardly seems to mAatter now.
EPlay me my song.
F#Here it comes again.
EPlay me my song.
F#Here it comes again.

Just a little bit more time,
Time left to live out my life.

F#mOld king cole was a Bmerry old soul,
And a mDerry old soul waF#ms he.
So he called for his pipe,
And he Bcalled for his bowl,
And he Dcalled for his fiddlers F#mthree.
F#mBut the clock, tick-Etock,
On the maDntlepiece -
And I want, and I feel, and I know, and I touch,
EHer wF#armth...

--------------------------------------------------------
[I recommend to play the last part like that,
otherwise the fast part wouldn't be playable:]
E - 7-7-9-9-9-7
F# - 9-9-11-11-11-9
B - 7-9-9-8-7-7
C# - 9-11-11-10-9-9
But the last F# chord play on 2-4-4-3-2-2, but I think it's obvious ;)
Anyway this is one of my favourite Genesis songs, I know that my work is not
100% correct, but makes it able to play and sing at once, I hope you'll
enjoy
as much as I do,
