Lyrics

It was (A)An sett six o three.

He (F#m)sits down next to me.

We were (D)fly ing out a cross the Great Di vide.

The (A)Bound for Dou ble U A he shook my hand and said β€œgood day.”

(D)There I was, Slim Dus ty by my side.

I was fly ing with The King.

Rid ing on the wind.

A small town boy from no where,

my head up in the clouds.

All the times I heard him play.

And here I was to day.

I was fly ing, I was fly ing with the king.

Was (A)Trum by rid ing slow thir ty (F#m)thou sand feet be low?

(D)Way down there ’round a of gid gee coal.

The (A)des ert stretch ing on home to count less Dus ty songs.

He (D)was a man who walked a coun try mile.

I was fly ing with The King.

Rid ing on the wind.

A small town boy from no where,

my head up in the clouds.

All the times I heard him play.

And here I was to day.

I was fly ing, I was fly ing with the king.

Was

And be (D)fore I knew, the wheels touched down.

He smiled and said β€œI’ll see you ’round.” There was (D)so much more to say but he was gone.

And now he’s gone.

I was fly ing with the king.
