Verse 1 

  A                    E
Tommy got off at the Texaco 
 D                   A
Came bustin' in to Norma's Cafe 
                  E
Said come on man we gotta go 
 D                           A
You know how those part girls hate to wait 
                          E
Filled up his daddy's trunk with ice and beer 
 D                  A
Yeah he was always stealin' the old man's car 
                  E
Radio never came in too clear 
        D                   A
So I'd bang out one on my piece of junk guitar 


Chorus

     F#m     G
Yeah we ruled from the blacktop 
 D                       A
To the levee where the party never stopped 
                 E
Yeah there was power in the night 
      F#m                  G
The spirit was alive when we would sing 
 A         E        D     G
Sha na na na na na na na 
           A
When We were kings 




Verse 2 

   A                          E
Sittin' around the fire one night Tommy called my name 
D                        A
I turned around he said hey what do ya think 
                                  E
Had his arm around the prettiest girl I'd ever seen 
D                           A
He kissed her hard and took another drink 
                      E
I say you must be an angel puttin' up with this guy 
 D                    A
She laughed and said play me some Rolling Stones 
                      E
I couldn't let that chance go by 
      D                            A
Yeah I sang her "You Can't Always Get What you Want" 


     F#m     G
Yeah we ruled from the blacktop 
 D                       A
To the levee where the party never stopped 
                 E
Yeah there was power in the night 
      F#m                  G
The spirit was alive when we would sing 
 A         E        D     G
Sha na na na na na na na 
           A
When We were kings 


Verse 3 

 A          E
That was the fall of '69 
D                  A
I guess Uncle Sam was hedging his bet 
                    E
Tommy's number came up he said "Hey, I'll be fine" 
  D                          A
"I'll teach 'em a lesson they'll never forget" 
                      E
Angel and I went to wave goodbye 
D                              A
I guess we'd always thought we'd see him again 
                               E
You know I took her out after that a couple of times 
D                        A
We always just wound up talkn' 'bout him


     F#m     G
Yeah we ruled from the blacktop 
 D                       A
To the levee where the party never stopped 
                 E
Yeah there was power in the night 
      F#m                  G
The spirit was alive when we would sing 
 A         E        D     G
Sha na na na na na na na 
           A
When We were kings 

     
 A         E        D     G
Sha na na na na na na na 
           A

Dm         Am     Bb       C         Dm
Spirits of trees, keepers of the forest 
Dm         Am     Bb      C     Dm
Sweet companies, here in my exile 
Dm         Am     Bb       C     Dm
My lonely whisper, taken by the wind 
Dm         Am     Bb       C        Dm
Signs of my kingdom, far away from me 

F               C              Dm
In the edge of dreams when I'm alone 
         Dm   C      Bb
A past of memories is gone
  C                 Gm
I live through this pain 
 Dm   C      Bb
Holding on forever 
    C        Dm
The warrior prays 

(Dm Am B C Dm)2X

Dm            Bb       Dm             C
Cold winds of truth, could I believe you? 
Gm         Dm       Bb              C
I waste my life, bleeding in the sacrifice 
Dm        Bb     Dm           C
Unholy prison, my faith is rusting in this chains 
Gm         Dm          Bb            C
Praying for the fight, and waiting for this day 

F               C              Dm
For all those years I felt the cold 
            Dm    C      Bb
The nights alone so far from home 
     C         Gm
The day I die again 
Dm    C      Bb     C
Holding on forever now

Dm        Bb            Gm
Hold the ashes of my life,

saddle horses to the fight

Where the eagles die 
Am   Bb   C                  Dm
When we where kings every night
Dm          Bb
After the storm 
Gm               Am     C      Dm
I see the gods playing in the stars 
Dm      B
Shining skies 
Am      B     C                  Dm
When we where kings through the times 

Bb            C            Dm
The voices whispering my name 
Bb            C            Dm
A king without the heroe's blade 

Dm            Bb       Dm             C
The raging winter, it frozed all my tears 
Gm             Dm    Bb           C
In this quiet exile, a heart of ice 
Dm            Bb       Dm             C
Forgive me father, my future now is in your hands 
Gm             Dm    Bb           C
Try to heal my soul, I'm coming back! 

F               C              Dm
For all those years I felt the cold 
            Dm    C      Bb
The nights alone so far from home
