CHORDS: Florence + The Machine – King Chords on Piano & Ukulele

These are the chords for King by Florence + The Machine on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard

[Verse 1]
     E                  
We argue in the kitchen 
        G#m
about whether to have children
           C#m
About the world ending and 
the scale of my ambition
     A                           G#m
And how much is art really worth
                       F#m
The very thing you\'re best at is 
the thing that hurts the most
         E
But you need your rotten heart
              G#m
Your dazzling pain 
like diamond rings
     C#m
You need to go to war 
to find material to sing
          A     
I am no mother, 
        G#m         B
I am no bride, I am King

[Chorus]
            A                     
I need my golden crown of sorrow, 
     B
my bloody sword to swing
    C#m                
My empty halls to echo 
             G#m
with grand self-mythology
          A     
I am no mother, 
         B          F#m
I am no bride, I am King
          A     
I am no mother, 
         B           E
I am no bride, I am King

[Verse 2]
                             
But a woman is a changeling, 
  G#m
always shifting shape
               C#m
Just when you think 
you have it figured out, 
something new begins to take
       A                      
What strangе claws are these, 
   G#m
scratching at my skin
   F#m
I nеver knew my killer would 
be coming from within
          E     
I am no mother, 
        G#m         C#m
I am no bride, I am King
          A     
I am no mother, 
        G#m         F#m
I am no bride, I am King

[Chorus]
            A                     
I need my golden crown of sorrow, 
     B
my bloody sword to swing
    C#m                
My empty halls to echo 
             G#m
with grand self-mythology
          A     
I am no mother, 
         B          F#m
I am no bride, I am King
           A    
I am no mother, 
         B          F#m
I am no bride, I am King
            A   
I am no mother, 
         B          C#m
I am no bride, I am King
           A    
I am no mother, 
         B           E
I am no bride, I am King

[Outro]
            E              
And I was never as good as 
           G#m
I always thought I was
       C#m
But I knew how to dress it up
              A        
I was never satisfied, 
    G#m
it never let me go
       F#m                 
Just dragged me by my hair 
     B                 E
and back on with the show
G#m C#m A G#m F#m E
