If I Were King

The Live at the Sons of Herman Hall album

*note: on the intro and instrumentals and a few other places, pick the
bass note of the chord and then strum ( on  G#, C#, and A pick the
bottom two bass notes in the chord)  ć - - -ć denotes a walk up or walk
down.  Listen to the song and you will see these things.
