 G5      Gm7            G5
 
 I am metal I am steel
 
 C9                                    D                           Am
 D
 
 but i don't mind cause i can't fell a thing...I'm a diamond ring
 
 G5      Gm7                      G5
 
 I'm not flesh & i'm not bone
 
 C9                              D               Am            D
 
 and i'm not sad & i'm not all alone...i'm a stone
 
 <Chorus>
 
 Am                                                 C
 
 the king is dead and the queen has flown
 
 G5                                   D
 
 left me here in the twilight zone
 
 Am                           C                               D
 
 lost & looking for a way to get back home.
 
 Am                                           C
 
 But there's no right and there's no wrong
 
 G5                              D            C
 
 so i'll be good & i'll be strong.
 
 G5          Gm7                 G5
 
 I'll be Silver & I'll be gold
 
 C9                                      D                     Am
 D
 
 without a heart and without even a soul...i'll be coal
 
 G5              Gm7                             G5
 
 I won't be blood & teeth and skin
 
 C9                                     D                       Am
 D
 
 & I won't feel this pain i'm in I'll be tin with no heart within
 
 <Chorus>
 
 Am                                             C
 
 the king is dead and the queen has flown
 
 G5                                                 D
 
 left me here in the twilight zone
 
 Am                                 C                                 D
 
 lost & looking for a way to get back home.
 
 Am                                            C
 
 But there's no right and there's no wrong
 
 G5                             D                    C
 
 so i'll be good & I'll be strong
 
 <Solo>
 
 <Chorus>
 
 G5      Gm7           G5
 
 I am metal I am steel
 
 C9                                   D                     Am
 
 but i don't mind cause i won't fell a thing
