The Kingdom

Gm Bb Cm7 Dm7

 Gm             Bb
One of those days
                     Cm7
That just comes and goes
               Dm7
It's not so special
 Gm             Bb
She watches the birds
                 Cm7
That rest on a ledge
              Dm7
Outside her room
             Cm7
The wallpaper old and faded
  Bb           Gm
A crack in the window pane
  Bb             Cm7
The radio just keeps playing
  Bb           Eb          Bb
Playing that same old song.

 Gm              Bb
She smiles to herself
                         Cm7
"they think that i'm strange...
                     Dm7
...they say I'm a dreamer
    Gm              Bb
...but I don't complain,
                     Cm7
Though I don't have much
            Dm7
To call my own."
                  Cm7
And she's not a movie star, no
 Bb              Gm
And she's not a beauty queen
   Bb                 Cm7
She'll tell you it doesn't matter
         Bb            Eb
'cause she's not the only one
She says,

Em          D
"I know a place
                  Am            C
Where I keep the best of things
Em               D
I'm not gonna wait
                   Am      C
For my piece of heaven.
 Em               D
Where there's a road
                   Am            C
It leads to the promised land
 Em              D
I just turn the key
The key to the
  Am
...kingdom..."

Gm Bb Cm7 Dm7

Gm                 Bb
She stares at the page
           Cm7                   Dm7
Of a new magazine, the morning papers
  Gm              Bb
She walks into town
                Cm7
And catches a show
                      Dm7
If she can find the time
                  Cm7
And she's not a movie star, no
      Bb           Gm
And she's not a beauty queen
         Bb           Cm7
She'll tell you it doesn't matter
  Bb                    Eb
'cause she's not the only one.
She says,
