Eli- King of the Hill
 Things I Prayed For
 Copyright 1998 Songs on The ForeFront Music
 Tabbed by Josh Gardner (cuinheaven@alloymail.com &
 http://fly.to/ChristChat)
 after Derrick Charles (derrick26@usa.net,
 http://freeweb.digiweb/music/dco)
 The last one had a few mistakes, and I added the lyrics at the bottom
 (the
 tabs in parenthases () are optional, I like to have them there cause it
 makes the song sound fuller)
 Tab 1--Intro verses, and chorus:
 e|----0--(0)---0--(0)----------0--------------------------
 A|------0-(0)----0-(0)------------------------------------
 G|-------------------------1h2---1------------------------
 B|-----------------------------------2--------------------
 A|-4-----------0------------------------------------------

 Tab 2--Play this where marked (this isn't right, its as close as I can
 get)
 e|----0--(0)---0--(0)-----0--(0)----0--(0)----0--(0)------
 A|------0-(0)----0-(0)------0-(0)-----0-(0)-----0-(0)-----

 Here are the lyrics:
 (if you want to play chords, i think its just an A and E back and forth)
 
 Verse 1-
 Stay with me awhile.
 Well it may seem foolish, but I'm scared
 My beloveds yelling "Crucify!"
 And its as if no one ever cared.
 
 Soldiers mock me with their songs.
 They laugh because I'm naked and I'm weak
 Well I don't know how much longer I can go on,
 When every breath I take is just to weep.
 
 Chorus 1-
 And for a moment time stood still,
 To listen to the King of the hill.
 And all the angels just stood still.
 To listen to the King of the hill.
 
 Verse 2-
 Well I could've had servants
 And I could have ruled this world as their King.
 And I could have had wealth beond measure.
 (tab 2,
 I could have had anything, but it wouldn't have meant anything
 
 Not my will but Yours be done,
 I had no agenda, only Your truth.
 You were so proud to call me Son,
 Now Father, I commit my soul to You.
 
 Chours 2-
 And for a moment time stood still,
 To listen to the King of the hill.
 And I can hear You whisper, stil;
 Father, I'm the King of the hill,
 (play ending)
 Father, I'm the King of the hill

 The last one had a few mistakes. This is tab is right. At least if
 it's not exactly correct, it's close enough that no one will be able
 to tell the difference. 
 
 For this song, form the chords and then finger pick the strings. 
 The Chords are as follows:
 
 C#m    A9   E   Esus  B4  B4(D#)
 e|-0-----0----0----0----0-----0-----------------------------
 B|-0-----0----0----0----0-----4-----------------------------
 G|-6-----2----1----2----4-----4-----------------------------
 D|-6-----2----2----2----4-----4-----------------------------
 A|-4-----0----2----2----2-----2-----------------------------
 E|-X-----X----0----0----X-----X-----------------------------
 
 
 It would take forever to tab the whole song, but here are the major
 riffs played. There are quite a few of them, but don't worry about that.
 They are all very similar with just a few differences between each one.
 It's not as hard as it looks. Especially if you have the c.d. and you
 have had some experience with finger picking. 
 Have fun with it.
 
 The symbols are as follows:  h- Hammer on
 p- Pull off

 Here are the lyrics and where to play each riff:
 
 Intro: Riff 1 (1x)  Riff 2 (1X)
 
 Verse 1-
 Riff 1 (3X)
 Stay with me awhile.
 Well it may seem foolish, but I'm scared
 My beloveds yelling "Crucify!"
 Riff 3 (1X)
 Its as if no one ever cared.
 
 Verse 2-
 Riff 1 (3X)
 Soldiers mock me with their songs.
 They laugh because I'm naked and I'm weak
 Well I don't know how much longer I can go on,
 Riff 4 (1X)
 When every breath I take is just to weep.
 
 Chorus 1-
 Riff 1 (1X)
 And for a moment time stood still,
 Riff 5 (1X)
 To listen to the King of the hill.
 Riff 1 (1X)
 And all the angels just stood still.
 Riff 6 (1X)
 To listen to the King of the hill.
 
 Verse 3-
 Riff 1 (3X)
 Well I could've had servants
 And I could have ruled this world as their King.
 And I could have had wealth beond measure.
 Riff 7 (1X)
 I could have had anything, but it wouldn't have meant anything
 
 Verse 4-
 Riff 1 (3X)
 Not my will but Yours be done,
 I had no agenda, only Your truth.
 You were so proud to call me Son,
 Riff 4 (1x)
 Now Father, I commit my soul to You.
 
 Chours 2-
 Riff 1 (1X)
 And for a moment time stood still,
 Riff 5 (1X)
 To listen to the King of the hill.
 Riff 1 (1X)
 And I can hear You whisper, still;
 Riff 8 (1X)
 Father, I'm the King of the hill,
 Riff 6 (1X)
 Father, I'm the King of the hill
 
 I Hope this isn't too confusing. It's the only way I could think to
 tab everything out. It will help if you have the c.d. and can listen
 to the song while you are learning it. 
 Enjoy!
