A          C#m        A         C#m 
When I was seventeen I dreamed of being king and

having everything I wanted 
A            C#m        A             C#m  
But that was long ago and my dreams did not unfold, so

I'm still the King of Nothing

verse 2 
A          C#m        A         C#m 
When I was seventeen, I dreamed I gave a ring to 
A        C#m            Bm - E 
A pretty queen and then I held her 
A            C#m               A         C#m 
But that was slumber's fault for I have no love at all 
A       Bm        E       A ? C#m         
And I'm still the King of Nothing
