King Of The World

Intro: G G/A G/B C G G/A G/B C9

G         G/A          G/B         C
Spinning around on the tops of his feet,
G             G/A          G/B       C
Smiles of the angels could not be so sweet.
D         Em       G/B        C
Wide blue eyes and piggy tail swirls
Am7       G/B     C9
She’s her daddy's girl.

       G            G/A          G/B         C
'Cause he knows the jokes that always make her laugh
G             G/A          G/B         C
Takes her for ice cream instead of her nap.
       D          Em         G/B          C
At the end of the day by the light of the moon,
     Am7                  Dsus4               D
They turn up the music in their living room,   and she yells

G/B   C   D         Em              G/B  C     D          Em
Dance me, dance me around, 'till my feet don’t ever touch down!
       Am7             G/B         C          D
'Cause there’s nothing better than being your girl,
       Am7       G/B            C
And if I am your princess, then daddy,
Dsus4        D           G    G/A G/B C
You are the king of the world.

( G G/A G/B C )

    G         G/A           G/B         C
It’s funny how life moves in circles of time
   G            G/A      G/B           C
To think not so long ago that face was mine
D          Em          G/B            C
Houses get smaller, we take different names
    Am7                          Dsus4  D
But some things in life stay the same.

G/B   C   D         Em              G/B  C     D          Em
Dance me, dance me around, 'till my feet don’t ever touch down!
       Am7             G/B         C          D
'Cause there’s nothing better than being your girl,
       Am7       G/B            C
And if I am your princess, then daddy,
Dsus4        D           G    G/A G/B C
You are the king of the world.

G               Bb         Am                 G
Some day she’ll go off and find a life of her own,
    G       C            D            G
And marry a good man and make a happy  home.
          Bb                                  C
Until she comes back and sees with those same eyes
     Am          Dsus4    D
What time cannot    disguise...

    G                 G/A            G/B         C
She walks through the door with that look on her face,
        G             G/A      G/B           C
 'Cause daddy's brown hair has all turned to gray.
D             Em          G/B          C
They talk for hours, they cry and they laugh,
D            Em        G/B       C
watchin’ old movies and thinkin’ back.
Am7         G/B      C
Just as she turns to go,
           Am7                Dsus4          D
She says, “Hey Dad, how 'bout one for the road?”

G/B   C   D         Em            G/B  C     D          Em
Dance me, dance me around till my feet don't ever touch...
Em    D/F#
Down!

G/B   C   D         Em              G/B  C     D          Em
Dance me, dance me around, 'till my feet don’t ever touch down!
       Am7             G/B         C          D
'Cause There’s nothing better than being your girl,
       Am7             G/B         C          D
Oh no, there’s nothing better than being your girl,
       Am7       G/B            C       Dsus4
And if I am your princess, then daddy, (extra measure)
D                       G      G/A G/B
You are the king of the world,
C       G       G/A  G/B C
king of... the world.

G         G/A          G/B         C
Spinning around on the tops of his feet,
G             G/A          G/B       C
Smiles of the angels could not be so sweet.
