(F#m) D E
I used to rule the world
A F#mSeas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
A F#mSweep the streets I used to own
D - E - A - F#m x2
(F#m) D E
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
D EListen as the crowd would sing:
A F#m"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
(F#m) D E
One minute I held the key
A F#mNext the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
A F#mUpon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
D E
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
A F#mRoman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield
A F#mMy missionaries in a foreign field
D EFor some reason I can't explain
Once you go there was never, never an honest word
C#m F#mThat was when I ruled the world
D E A F#m
(F#m) D E
It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in.
D EShattered windows and the sound of drums
A F#mPeople couldn't believe what I'd become
(F#m) D E
Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
D EJust a puppet on a lonely string
A F#mOh who would ever want to be king?
D E
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
A F#mRoman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield
A F#mMy missionaries in a foreign field
D EFor some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter will call my name ,
D Enever an honest word
C#m F#mBut that was when I ruled the world
D F#m x3E x2
D E A F#m
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)
D E
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
A F#mRoman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield
A F#mMy missionaries in a foreign field
D EFor some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter will call my name ,
D Enever an honest word
C#m F#mBut that was when I ruled the world
D - E - C#m - F#m
Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh
