C D

I used to rule the world

G Em

Seas would rise when I gave the word

C D

Now in the morning I sleep alone

G Em

sweep the streets I used to own

C D G Em C D G Em

C D

I used to roll the dice

G Em

feel the fear in my enemies eyes

C D

listen as the crowd would sing

G Em

Now the old king is dead Long live The King

C D

One minute I held the key

G Em

Next the walls were closed on me

C D

And I discovered that my castles stand

G Em

upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

C D

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing

G Em

Roman cavalry choirs are singing

C D

Be my mirror, my sword and shield

G Em

My missonaries in the foreign field

C D

For some reason I can't explain

G Em

Once you go there was never

C D

Never an honest word

G Em

But that was when I ruled the world

C D G Em C D G Em

C D

It was the wicked and wild wind

G Em

blew down the doors to let me in

C D

Shattered windows and the sound of drums

G Em

People couldn't believe what I'd become

C D

Revolutionaries wait

G Em

For my head on a silver plate

C D

Just a puppet on a lonely string

G Em

Oh who would ever want to be king

C D

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing

G Em

Roman cavalry choirs are singing

C D

Be my mirror, my sword and shield

G Em

My missonaries in the foreign field

C D

For some reason I can't explain

G Em

I know Saint Peter will call my name

C D

Never an honest word

G Em

But that was when I ruled the world

C Em C Em C Em D

C D G Em C D G Em

C D

Hear Jerusalem bells a ringing

G Em

Roman cavalry choirs are singing

C D

Be my mirror, my sword and shield

G Em

My missonaries in the foreign field
