I Used To Be A King

Graham Nash

Transposer:

CAPO: V [Intro] x3 [Verse 1] I used to be a king And everything around me turned to gold I thought I had everything And now I’m left without a hand to hold But it’s all right I’m okay how are you For what it’s worth I must say I loved you And in my bed late at night I miss you [Chorus] Someone is going to take my heart But no one is going to break my heart again [Verse 2] I used to be a king And everything around me turned to rust It’s ’cause I built my life on sand And I watched it crumble in the dust Yeah but it’s all right I’m okay I want to know how you are And what it’s worth I must say I loved you as you are And in my bed where are you [Chorus] Someone is going to take my heart But no one is going to break my heart again Someone is going to take my heart But no one is going to break my heart again [Verse 3] And I used to be a king But everything around me turned around But I know all I have to do is sing And I’ll lift myself way off the ground Yeah but it’s all right I’m okay how are you For what it’s worth I must say I loved you And in my bed late at night God I’ll miss you [Chorus] Someone is going to take my heart But no one is going to break my heart again [Outro]

La chanson évoque le parcours d'une personne qui, autrefois, se sentait au sommet, comme un roi, entourée de richesse et de succès. Cependant, cette personne réalise que tout ce qu'elle avait s'est effondré, laissant place à une solitude émotionnelle. Malgré cette désillusion, elle conserve une certaine sérénité et exprime un bras de fer avec ses souvenirs, regrettant ceux qu'elle a perdu, tout en affirmant son désir de ne plus se laisser blesser. Le contexte de cette chanson parle peut-être de la vulnérabilité après des échecs relationnels, où l'on doit apprendre à rebâtir sa vie sur des fondations plus solides. C'est un reflet sur les pertes et l'espoir de retrouver l'amour, tout en affirmant la force de ne plus souffrir à nouveau.
