C#
In the garage and water
From the sprinklers
It also left a man's decapitated body
Lying on the floor
Next to his own severed head
A head which at this time
Has no name
I know his name...

 B   A B
Here I am!
         E              D  A B A B E D A
I'm the master of your destiny,

Chorus:
         G
I am the one, the only one,
          A
I am the God of Kingdom Come,
            B                        C#
Gimme the Prize! Just gimme the prize!

Give me your kings
Let me squeeze them in my hands
He-he-hey
Your puny princes
Your so-called leaders of your land

               F#               B
I'll eat them whole before I'm done,
              F#                     B
The battle's fought and the game is won,

Chorus:
I am the one, the only one
I am the god of kingdom come
Give me the prize
Just give me the prize (the prize)

 C#
Now you die!
I have something to say
It's better to burn out
Then to fade away
There can be only one!

Move over!
I said move over!

Hey, hey, hey, clear the way
There's no escape from my authority
Didn't I tell you?

Chorus:
I am the one, the only one
I am the god of kingdom come
Give me the prize
Just give me the prize

I am the one, the only one
I am the god of kingdom come
So give me the prize
