D
My thirst for the things of this earth
      Bm          A           G 
Isn't quenched by diamonds or pearls
D
One Man lived the life that I want
         Bm            A         G
He's the One they said ruled the world
Em                    Bm         
Though He only wore a crown of thorns
       A
And He never owned a thing

                      G    A
I want to live like a King
                      D    A  Bm
I want to live like a King
                      G 
And my decree it will ring
                      A               
"Love will rule everything"
                      D
I want to live like a King

D
This King did the strangest of things
     Bm           A            G
He befriended the sick and the poor
             D
There was no one too wrong, too right, too black, too white for Him to
Love
            Bm          A           G
He built no walls, left no unopened doors
          Em              Bm
Well, now I could croon a million other tunes
              A
There is just one I want to sing

                      G    A
I want to live like a King
                      D    A  Bm
I want to live like a King
                      G
And my decree it will ring
                      A
"Love will rule everything"
                      D
I want to live like a King

G                     D
I want to be stronger, I want to be wiser
E      Em                 D
I just want to make every move be the one He'd want to see from me
G                        D
There's just such power, such healing power
Bb       Am           Gm             F            Em    A  
In every word that He said, in every deed that He did
                      G    A
I want to live like a King

                      D    A  Bm
I want to live like a King
                      G
And my decree it will ring
                      A
"Love will rule everything"
                      D
I want to live like a King
