Excellent song - this sounds about right to me.....
King of Spain
CHORUS
OncF#e I was the KBing of SF#pain 
noF#w I eat hBumble F#pie
Oh.F#.. my unspeakable wBife, Queen LF#isa 
noF#w I eat hBumble pF#ie
I'm tF#elling you I was the KBing of SF#pain
noF#w I eat hBumble pF#ie
And nF#ow I work at the PC#izza PiF#zza
1 2 3 4!
F#    B    F#  B  F#
F#    B    F#  C# F#
VERSE
RoyF#alty, lord it looked gBood on me
Buried in Bsilk in the royal bF#oudoir or gC#oing nuclear fF#ree
Or playing CrF#okinole with the Princess of MoBnaco
Telling my joBkes to the OPEC leF#aders, C#getting it all on vF#ideo
CHORUS
OncF#e I was the BKing of SF#pain 
noF#w I eat hC#umble pF#ie
A pF#alatial palace, tBhat was my hoF#me
noF#w I eat C#humble pF#ie
I'm tF#elling you I was the KBing of SF#pain
noF#w I eat hC#umble F#pie
And nF#ow I vacuum the tC#urf at SkF#yDome
OnF#ce he was the KBing of SF#pain
VERSE 
I cF#an't wait, I'm lowering intBerest rates; my people say:
"King, hBow are you such a geF#nius? There's a roC#of overhead and fF#ood on our plates!"
It's lF#aissez-faire, I don't even giBve a care
Let's make FrBiday part of the weF#ekend and give evC#ery new baby a chF#ocolate eclair
CHORUS
OncF#e I was the BKing of SF#pain 
noF#w I eat C#humble F#pie
Hey F#Clinton! Hey Yeltsin! Got Bproblems? You F#phone me!
noF#w I eat hC#umble F#pie
I'm F#telling you I was the KBing of SF#pain
noF#w I eat hC#umble pF#ie
Now the LF#eafs call me up to dC#rive the ZF#amboni
OnF#ce he was the KBing of SF#pain
Solo
Ladies and Gentlemen, I introduce to you the international orchestra!
B      F#      C#       D#m B F#
F#Now some of you might be wondering how I came to be living in Canada
after being royalty in Spain. Should I tell them, guys?
Tell us, King!
VERSE
You see lF#ate one night when the pBalace was asleep
Out Bof my royal chF#ambers and iC#nto the garden I F#creep
And I wait tF#ill the appointed time, when the mBoon is lighting the pitch
At which point my pBeasant friend, who looks jF#ust like me aC#rrives and we make a sF#witch!
F#Prince and pauper, junior and whopper, wBorld made up of silver and copper
UndBer my own volition, F#I took a change of pC#ositionF#  
F#So next time you drool in the pBizza line
Remember, sBlower pizza's more lF#uscious: the King of Spain never rushes!
CHORUS/ENDING
OncF#e I was the BKing of SF#pain 
noF#w I eat hC#umble F#pie
I was lF#ooking for offhanded wBays to iF#mprove us 
noF#w I eat C#humble F#pie
I'm F#telling you I was the KBing of SF#pain
noF#w I eat hC#umble pF#ie
And nF#ow I'm jamming with MC#oxy FF#ruvous!
OnF#ce he was the KBing of SF#pain

You see late one night when the palace was asleep

Prince and pauper, junior and whopper, world made up of silver and copper

Remember, slower pizza's more luscious: the King of Spain never rushes!
