[Verse 1]
    Em
The rusted chains of prison moons
Are shattered by the sun
I walk a road, horizons change
The tournament's begun
    Am           Fmaj7/A
The purple piper plays  his tune
    Am6              Fmaj7/A
The choir softly sing
     Em
Three  lullabies in an ancient tongue

[Chorus]
                             D   Cadd9 C B7sus4 B D Cadd9 C
For the court of the crimson king
B7sus4 B

[Verse 2]
    Em
The keeper of the city keys
Put shutters on the dreams
I wait outside the pilgrim's door
With insufficient schemes
    Am                     Fmaj7/A
The black queen chants the funeral march
    Am6                          Fmaj7/A
The cracked brass bells will ring
  Em
To  summon back the fire witch

[Chorus]
                            D   Cadd9 C B7sus4 B D Cadd9 C B7sus4 B
To the court of the crimson king

[Verse 3]
    Em
The gardener plants an evergreen
Whilst trampling on a flower
I chase the wind of a prism ship
To taste the sweet and sour
    Am              Fmaj7/A
The pattern juggler lifts  his hand
    Am6            Fmaj7/A
The orchestra begin
  Em
As  slowly turns the grinding wheel

[Chorus]
                            D   Cadd9 C B7sus4 B D Cadd9 C
In the court of the crimson king
B7sus4 B

Cmaj7#11/E     Emadd9              Cmaj7#11/E
          On a soft  gray mornings widows cry
    Em6add9            Cmaj7#11/E
The wise   men share a joke      
  Emadd9           Cmaj7#11/E
I run   to grasp divining signs
   Em6add9     Cmaj7#11/E
To satisfy the hoax      
    Am            Fmaj7/A
The yellow jester does   not play
    Am6                     Fmaj7/A
But gently pulls the strings
   Emadd9              Cmaj7#11/E
And      smiles as the puppets dance

[Chorus]
       Em6add9               D   Cadd9 C B7sus4 B D Cadd9 C B7sus4 B D Cadd9 C B7sus4 B Emaj7add13
In the court  of the crimson king
