G G C C

[Verse 1]
    F
You live on your hill
   F           C
So high and so lonely
    G
You toss out your breadcrumbs
   F            C       C7
To those down below

    F
They think you're a king
    F              C
But believe me it's only
  G
Because they're too blinded
   F            C       C7
To know...


[Chorus]
     F
Your castle is dingy
    F          C
And dirty, and dismal
     G
Your carpets are faded
     F             C       C7
Your walls are all grey

       F
There's dust on your silver
    F             C
And cracks in your crystal
    G
And all your young servants
     F        C       C7
Have drifted away


[Verse 2]
      F
There once was a time
        F           C
When your money had meaning
     G
Your diamonds had glitter
    F            C       C7
But now it's all gone

   F
It poisoned your laughter
    F            C
And muffled your singing
    G
You can't even see
         F        C       C7
That it's wrong...


[Chorus]
     F
Your castle is dingy
    F          C
And dirty, and dismal
     G
Your carpets are faded
     F             C       C7
Your walls are all grey

       F
There's dust on your silver
    F             C
And cracks in your crystal
    G
And all your young servants
     F        C       C7
Have drifted away


[Verse 3]
      F
So go back to your sadness
   F            C
Go back to your sorrow
 G
I'll make my bed
     F               C       C7
On a hill 'neath the sky

    F
And lay there, a-listening
         F         C
Till the sun comes tomorrow
  G
Counting the tears
         F        C       C7
That you cry...


[Chorus]
     F
Your castle is dingy
    F          C
And dirty, and dismal
     G
Your carpets are faded
     F             C       C7
Your walls are all grey

       F
There's dust on your silver
    F             C
And cracks in your crystal
    G
And all your young servants
     F        C       C7
Have drifted away
