VERSE 1
C#                                  Fm
Once upon a time in the land of Sinaplenty
F#                            F#5 F5 Eb5 C#5
There lived a king who didn't deserve to be
F7
He knew not where he came from
F#
Nor where he was going
A                                  Ab
He never once said thank u, never please

VERSE 2
C#                          Fm
Now this king had a subject named Electra
F#                                F#5 F5 Eb5 C#5
Who loved him with a passion uncontested
F7
4 him each day she had a smile
       F#
But it didn't matter
A                                  Ab
The king was looking 4 the ladder

CHORUS 1
C#                            Fm
Everybody's looking for the ladder
F#                        F#5 F5 Eb5 C#5
Everybody wants salvation of the soul
    F7                               F#
The steps you take are no easy road
          A                                    Ab
But the reward is great 4 those that want to go

VERSE 3
C#                                     Fm
A feeling of self worth will caress u
F#                                       F#5 F5 Eb5 C#5
The size of the whole wide world will decrease
F7                                 F#
The love of God's creation will undress u
A                                   Ab
And time spent alone my friend will cease

CHORUS 2
C#                            Fm
Everybody's looking for the answers
F#                        F#5 F5 Eb5 C#5
How the story started and how it will end
F7                               F#
   Whats the use in half a story    half a dream
  A                                 Ab
U have to climb the steps inbetween
C#                            Fm
Everybody's looking for the ladder
F#                        F#5 F5 Eb5 C#5
Everybody wants salvation of the soul
    F7                               F#
The steps you take are no easy road
          A                                    Ab
But the reward is great 4 those that want to go
