(início)

      F
I was sure that you'd love me
        Am
To that hope, I did cling
          Eb
'Cause I'm... Richard the third
       Bb
And... Everybody loves a king!

Bridge 1

          F
Thought I did a good job, Why do you disagree?
          Am
There's a lot of people spreading nasty rumors 'bout me
      Eb
Every word is a lie, So I'm singing this song
           Bb                      Bb/D       C
'Cause the history books have been telling it wrong!

Chorus 1

  F                        C
I Never had a limp, Always walked my full height
Eb                       Bb
Never had a hump, And my arm was all right
      F                        C
Never took the crown with the illegal power
      Eb                     Bb
Never killed my nephews, The princes in the tower
Gm         F                 Bb    Bb/D
Tudor propaganda, it's all absurd
Eb*                    Bb*                    F*
Time to tell the truth 'bout King Richard the third

Verse 2

   F
My brother Edward, died
    Am
His kids too young to rule
    Eb
So... I took the throne
    Bb
Why not? I'm nobody's fool!

Bridge 2

       F
Thomas Moore wrote a history, Said I'd murdered Edward's boys
Am
Shakespeare said their death was an evil ploy
    Eb
But I say those two are historical vandals!
        Bb                       Bb/D   C
They've ruined my image! I mean, what a scandal!

CHRORUS 2

F                      C
Never bumped off those harmless young heirs
Eb                          Bb
Never buried them under the Tower of London stairs
      F                 C
Never poisoned my wife, Bumped off her daddy
        Eb                      Bb
This is me, sweet Richard, Do I look like a baddy?
Gm            F                   Bb   Bb/D
Never was two-faced, Sure you'll agree
      Eb*          Bb*            F        F/E
I was misunderstood, King Richard three

Refrain

Eb                  Ab
Can you imagine it? I'm the last Plantagenet
Eb                     Ab
Beaten by Henry in the Wars of the Roses
    Eb                   Ab
The Tudor dynasty didn't care that much for me
        Eb                             Eb/Bb  Ab
Now I'm painted as a baddy, That's why one supposes...

Chorus 3

F                     C
Never forget when you hear of my crimes
Eb                            Bb
Never drowned my brother in a massive vat of wine
      F                 C
Never said "a horse! My kingdom for a horse!"
Eb                             Bb
Who made that up? Why, William Shakespeare, of course!
Gm             F                         Bb   Bb/D
Now my tale is told you won't hear a bad word
 Eb*                 Bb*
About a special ruler, King Richard the third
