King Of Kingdom Of Man

E F# B


[Verse 1]

B                    D#
Check the covers for spiders,
E                         B
Before you go crawling in bed
B                      D#
You longed to lie down beside her
E                     B
And bled ideas in her head
B                   D#
You are children of angels
E                    B
And you're living in sin
B                          D#
Well, they've got just the place for
E                          B
The kind of trouble you're in


[Verse 2]

E                        B
And her hair smells like flowers
                    E
You're counting the hours
                      B
Between thundershowers
E                B
Unleash your new superpowers
           F#
Don't be a coward


[Verse 3]

B               D#
Did you come to remember?
E                     B
Or did you come to for-get?
B                    D#
You went looking for Jesus,
E                     B
And found the devil in-stead
B          D#
So many con-victions
E               B
About life after death
B                  D#
But you just can't believe in
E                B
any single one of them


[Verse 4]

E                    B
And it's all on your shoulders
                E
It feels like a boulder
                        B
And you're just getting older
E                          B
The universe seems to grow colder
                F#
Each time you be-hold her


[Chorus 1]

E                    F#
Alpha-man, father of everyone's children
B                         G#m
The King of the Kingdom of Man
E                                F#
Do you father your sons and your daughters?
            B                 G#m
All of them follow your every command
E                         F#
You sire them all on your own
         B                         G#m
Then you kick them all out of your home
E                        F#                         B               D#
Alpha-man, tell all your children to leave you alone!
E                        F#                         G#m
Alpha-man, tell all your children to leave you alone...

[Verse 5]

E                                B
Tuck the old folks into their new homes
          E                      B
Watch the skin slip off of their bones
E                       B
Watch out for pigeons on telephone poles
          F#
They will shit all over your clothes


[Chorus 2]

E                    F#
Alpha-man, father of everyone's children
B                         G#m
The King of the Kingdom of Man
E                                F#
Do you father your sons and your daughters?
            B                 G#m
All of them follow your every command
E                         F#
You sire them all on your own
         B                         G#m
Then you kick them all out of your home

E                        F#                         B        D#
Alpha-man, tell all your children to leave you alone!
E                        F#                         B        D#
Alpha-man, tell all your children to leave you alone!
E                        F#                         B        D#
Alpha-man, tell all your children to leave you alone!
E                        F#                         B
Alpha-man, tell all your children to leave you alone!
