D D              Dsus4 Dsus4  D D 
I'm gonna be a mighty king
D D Dsus4 Dsus4 D D
So enemies beware!
G7 G7
Well, I've never seen a king of beasts
G G D D
With quite so little hair



D D Dsus4 Dsus4 D D
I'm gonna be the main event
D D Dsus4 Dsus4 D D
Like no king was before
G7 G7
I'm brushing up on looking down
G G D D
I'm working on my ROAR
Em Em Em7 Em7 A7 A7
Thus far, a rather uninspiring thing
G G A A D D Dsus4 Dsus4 D D Dsus4 Dsus4
Oh, I just can't wait to be king!


[You've rather a long way to go,]

[young master, if you think...]


G G
No one saying do this

[Now when I said that, I--]
Em7 Em7
No one saying be there

[What I meant was...]
A7 A7
No one saying stop that

[Look, what you don't realize...]
Dsus4 Dsus4 D D
No one saying see here

[Now see here!]
Em Em Em7 Em7 A7 A7
Free to run around all day

[Well, that's definitely out...]
G G A A D D Dsus4 Dsus4 D D Dsus4 Dsus4
Free to do it all my way!



D D Dsus4 Dsus4 D D
I think it's time that you and I
D D Dsus4 Dsus4 D D
Arranged a heart to heart
G7 G7
Kings don't need advice
G G D D
From little hornbills for a start



D D Dsus4 Dsus4 D D
If this is where the monarchy is headed
Dsus4 Dsus4 D D
Count me out!
G G G7 G7
Out of service, out of Africa
G G D D Dsus4 Dsus4 D D
I wouldn't hang about... aagh!
Em Em Em7 Em7 A7 A7
This child is getting wildly out of wing
G G A A D D
Oh, I just can't wait to be king!



BREAK ... SHIFT TO CAPO 5th FRET



D -- Dsus4 -- D -- Dsus4 -- D

D -- Dsus4 -- D -- Dsus4



G G
Everybody look left
Em7 Em7
Everybody look right
A7 A7
Everywhere you look I'm
Dsus4 Dsus4 D D
Standing in the spotlight!


[Not yet!]


Em Em Em7 Em7 A7 A7
Let every creature go for broke and sing
Em Em Em7 Em7 A7 A7
Let's hear it in the herd and on the wing
Em Em Em7 Em7 A7 A7
It's gonna be King Simba's finest fling



G G A A D D Dsus4 Dsus4 D D
Oh I just can't wait to be king!
G G A A D D Dsus4 Dsus4 D D
Oh I just can't wait to be king!
G G A A D D Dsus4 Dsus4 D D
Oh I just can't waaaaaait ... to be king!
