Fit For Kings Chords

[Verse 1]
G
I can see the house we made
 
Where you taught me how to dance
D/F#
We would joke that I got paid
 
To give you plastic romance
      C
We built this home on sticks and stones
 
And sentimental things
       D
The years have passed, the garden’s grown
     N.C.
This place was fit for kings
 
[Interlude]
G
 
[Verse 2]
G
I’ve walked these streets
 
The memories of people that we knew
D/F#
Time is our only enemy
 
And the only one that’s true
C
Friends will come and friends will go
 
We’ll take what we can bring
D
It is only you I know
        N.C.
In this place that was fit for kings
 
[Chorus]
C        D              G        (D/F#)    Em
You can take my beating heart to keep the time
C               D                G      (D/F#)     Em
You can have my broken words and try to make them rhyme
C                    D        G        (D/F#)Em
Be my compass and my map, and bring me on my way
C               D                        G
Wherever you’re going, that’s where I’ll stay
 
[Verse 3]
G
Come inside, hang up your hat
 
Take off your coat and shoes
D/F#
You can rest your weary feet
 
And put ‘em where you choose
C
And if your telephone is broken
 
I’ll try to make it ring
D
The door’s unlocked, I leave it open
     N.C.
This place was fit for kings
 
[Chorus]
C         D             G         (D/F#)  Em
You can take my beating heart to keep the time
C                D               G      (D/F#)    Em
You can have my broken words and try to make them rhyme
C                     D       G        (D/F#)Em
Be my compass and my map, and bring me on my way
C               D                        G
Wherever you’re going, that’s where I’ll stay
 
Verse 4- No Music
 
Rough and rocky, down this road
 
In this god-forsaken land
 
Seems like oh, so long ago
 
When you went and took my hand
 
You said, “Hey I saw you looking at me
 
From across the room
 
Oh, I’ll take my chance-- you wanna dance?”
 
I said, “Only if it’s with you”
 
[Chorus]
C       D               G       (D/F#)    Em
You can take my beating heart to keep the time
C                D               G     (D/F#)      Em
You can have my broken words and try to make them rhyme
C                    D        G       (D/F#)  Em
Be my compass and my map, and bring me on my way
C*               D*                       G*   (Walk G-D/F#-Em)
Wherever you’re going, that’s where I’ll stay
 
C*          D*                            G
I’ll always love you, ‘till the end of my days
