I'm gonna be a mighty king 
D            Dsus4 D 
So enemies beware! 
           G7 
Well, I've never seen a king of beasts 
     G               D 
With quite so little hair  
 
  
D                Dsus4 D 
I'm gonna be the main event 
D                  Dsus4 D 
Like no king was before 
    G7 
I'm brushing up on looking down 
    G             D 
I'm working on my ROAR 
     Em            Em7         A7 
Thus far, a rather uninspiring thing 
      G          A          D Dsus4 D Dsus4 
Oh, I just can't wait to be king!  
  
[You've rather a long way to go,] 
  
[young master, if you think...]  
 

              G 
No one saying do this 
  
[Now when I said that, I--] 
              Em7 
No one saying be there 
  
[What I meant was...] 
              A7 
No one saying stop that 
  
[Look, what you don't realize...] 
              Dsus4 D 
No one saying see here 
  
[Now see here!] 
Em           Em7       A7 
Free to run around all day 
  
[Well, that's definitely out...] 
G             A      D Dsus4 D Dsus4 
Free to do it all my way! 
    
  
D                      Dsus4   D 
I think it's time that you and I 
D                   Dsus4 D 
Arranged a heart to heart 
G7 
Kings don't need advice 
            G               D 
From little hornbills for a start   
  
  
D                    Dsus4       D 
If this is where the monarchy is headed 
Dsus4    D 
Count me out! 
       G               G7 
Out of service, out of Africa 
  G              D       Dsus4 D 
I wouldn't hang about... aagh! 
Em                    Em7           A7 
This child is getting wildly out of wing 
      G          A          D 
Oh, I just can't wait to be king!

Standing in the spotlight!  
  
[Not yet!] 
 
  
Em                 Em7              A7 
Let every creature go for broke and sing

Let's hear it in the herd and on the wing 
Em                 Em7            A7 
It's gonna be King Simba's finest fling
