Capo 4th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

I'm gonna be a mighty king

So enemies beware!

 Well, I've never seen a king of beasts

 With quite so little hair

I'm gonna be the main event

Like no king was before

 I'm brushing up on looking down

 I'm working on my ROAR

 Thus far, a rather uninspiring thing

 Oh, I just can't wait to be king!

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

[young master, if you think...]

 No one saying do this

[Now when I said that, I--]

 No one saying be there

[What I meant was...]

 No one saying stop that

[Look, what you don't realize...]

 No one saying see here

[Now see here!]

Free to run around all day

[Well, that's definitely out...]

Free to do it all my way!

I think it's time that you and I

Arranged a heart to heart

Kings don't need advice

 From little hornbills for a start

If this is where the monarchy is headed

Count me out!

 Out of service, out of Africa

 I wouldn't hang about... aagh!

This child is getting wildly out of wing

 Oh, I just can't wait to be king!

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

D -- Dsus4 -- D -- Dsus4

 Everybody look left

 Everybody look right

 Everywhere you look I'm

 Standing in the spotlight!

[Not yet!]

Let every creature go for broke and sing

Let's hear it in the herd and on the wing

It's gonna be King Simba's finest fling

Oh I just can't wait to be king!

Oh I just can't wait to be king!

Oh I just can't waaaaaait ... to be king!
