Verse 1:
G
Many's the day I took for granted
Am Em
Breathing the air that silenced some
Em
As the North Wind blew
With it's head of thunder
Am G
Beating its breast with a war drenched song
G Am C
Bathe awhile, awash in slumber
G Am D
Cry what's left to sleep
G Am C
Where you dream of the love you left forever
G Am D
But pity no more nor grieve
Chorus
G C
For we're the kings of it all
Am D
From the day we were born
G Am D
Now we're the Kings of the Kilburn High
G C Am
Sure we'll always take a drop and we'll never
D
leave a sup
G Am D
Your empty glass is but a tear filled eye
C D EmEm Am Em Em Am Em

G
Listen to the sound of dead men dying
Am Em
March as they flee but exiled bound
Em
Their ship once sailed no longer anchors
Am
For gone is the green
G
And their hallowed ground

Toast to tears of times past glories
G Am D
This ageless clock chime stalls
G Am C
Where to kiss the lips of that love forgotten
G Am D
To fly where no others have soared
