Tom: A A F#m E It was a rainy night, the night the king went down E F#m Everybody was crying, it seemed like sadness had surrounded the town A F#m E Me I went to the liquor store, and I bought a bottle of wine and a bottle of gin E F#m I played his records all night, drinking with a close, close friend C#m F#m Now some people say that it ain't right Bm A F#m And some people say nothing at all C#m F#m But even in the darkest of night Bm A D You can always hear the king's call Bm A F#m You can always hear the king's call It is the same pattern all along the song (additional lyrics below). Well they put him away in Memphis Six feet beneath the clay Everybody was crying Everybody said it was a plain grey day Me I went to the liquor store And I bought another bottle of wine and another bottle of gin I played his records all night And I got drunk all over again Now some people say that it ain't right And some people say nothing at all But even in the darkest of night You could always hear the king's call You could always hear the king's call
