[Intro]
C#m Bsus2 (x4)

[Verse]
          C#m          B           C#m    B      C#m Bsus2 C#m Bsus2
There's a little black spot on the sun today
         A        B        A     B     D#7  D#m7  A
It's the same old thing as yesterday
          C#m       B           C#m        B     C#m Bsus2 C#m Bsus2
There's a black hat caught in a high tree top
           A        B           A          B     G#m7  A/C# Bsus2/A  Asus2
There's a flag pole rag and the wind won't stop

[Chorus]
         E          E/F#            E/G#     A
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
          E           E/F#             E/G#        A
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
        E          E/F#               E/G#      A
I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign
         E      E/F#          E/G#     A
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain

[Verse]
          C#m          B             C#m         B
There's a fossil that's trapped in a high cliff wall
C#m        B         C#m  B
That's my soul up there
           A            B          A    B
There's a dead salmon frozen in a waterfall
G#m7                A
That's my soul up there
          C#m         B             C#m         B
There's a blue whale beached by a springtide's ebb
C#m        B         C#m  B
That's my soul up there
           A      B                A       B
There's a butterfly trapped in a spider's web
G#m7                A
That's my soul up there


[Chorus]
         E          E/F#            E/G#     A
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
          E           E/F#             E/G#        A
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
        E          E/F#               E/G#      A
I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign
         E      E/F#          E/G#     A
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain

[Bridge]
B                      E            A
There's a king on a throne with his eyes torn out
B                    E              A
There's a blind man looking for a shadow of doubt
B                   E           A/F#
Ther's a rich man sleeping on a golden bed
B                   E             A        C#m
There's a skeleton choking on a crust of bread

[Verse]
          C#m     B         C#m         B    C#m Bsus2 C#m Bsus2
There's a red fox torn by a huntsman's pack
            A           B            A     B    G#m7  A
There's a black winged gull with a broken back
          C#m         B            C#m    B    C#m Bsus2 C#m Bsus2
There's a little black spot on the sun today
          A         B       A     B    G#m7  A
It's the same old thing as yesterday

[Chorus]

But it's my destiny to be the king of pain
E      E/F#          E/G#     A
                                 Queen of pain
E      E/F#          E/G#     A
                                 Queen of pain
E      E/F#          E/G#     A
                                 Queen of pain
E      E/F#          E/G#     A
               I'll always be Queen of pain
