INTRO: C baritone chordC - D baritone chordD - G baritone chordG - Em baritone chordEm    x2

(Em baritone chordEm) C baritone chordC D baritone chordD
I used to rule the world
G baritone chordG Em baritone chordEm
Seas would rise when I gave the word
C baritone chordC D baritone chordD
Now in the morning I sleep alone
G baritone chordG Em baritone chordEm
Sweep the streets I used to own

C baritone chordC - D baritone chordD - G baritone chordG - Em baritone chordEm x2

(Em baritone chordEm) C baritone chordC D baritone chordD
I used to roll the dice
G baritone chordG Em baritone chordEm
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
C baritone chordC D baritone chordD
Listen as the crowd would sing:
G baritone chordG Em baritone chordEm
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"


(Em baritone chordEm) C baritone chordC D baritone chordD
One minute I held the key
G baritone chordG Em baritone chordEm
Next the walls were closed on me
C baritone chordC D baritone chordD
And I discovered that my castles stand
G baritone chordG Em baritone chordEm
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

C baritone chordC D baritone chordD
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
G baritone chordG Em baritone chordEm
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
C baritone chordC D baritone chordD
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield
G baritone chordG Em baritone chordEm
My missionaries in a foreign field
C baritone chordC D baritone chordD
For some reason I can't explain
G baritone chordG Em baritone chordEm C baritone chordC D baritone chordD
Once you go there was never, never an honest word
Bm baritone chordBm Em baritone chordEm
That was when I ruled the world

C baritone chordC - D baritone chordD - G baritone chordG - Em baritone chordEm x2

(Em baritone chordEm) C baritone chordC D baritone chordD
It was the wicked and wild wind
G baritone chordG Em baritone chordEm
Blew down the doors to let me in.
C baritone chordC D baritone chordD
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
G baritone chordG Em baritone chordEm
People couldn't believe what I'd become

(Em baritone chordEm) C baritone chordC D baritone chordD
Revolutionaries wait
G baritone chordG Em baritone chordEm
For my head on a silver plate
C baritone chordC D baritone chordD
Just a puppet on a lonely string
G baritone chordG Em baritone chordEm
Oh who would ever want to be king?


C baritone chordC D baritone chordD
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
G baritone chordG Em baritone chordEm
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
C baritone chordC D baritone chordD
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield
G baritone chordG Em baritone chordEm
My missionaries in a foreign field
C baritone chordC D baritone chordD
For some reason I can't explain
G baritone chordG Em baritone chordEm
I know Saint Peter will call my name ,
C baritone chordC D baritone chordD
never an honest word
Bm baritone chordBm Em baritone chordEm
But that was when I ruled the world

C baritone chordC - Em baritone chordEm x3
D baritone chordD x2


C baritone chordC - D baritone chordD - G baritone chordG - Em baritone chordEm x2
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)

C baritone chordC D baritone chordD
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
G baritone chordG Em baritone chordEm
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
C baritone chordC D baritone chordD
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield
G baritone chordG Em baritone chordEm
My missionaries in a foreign field
C baritone chordC D baritone chordD
For some reason I can't explain
G baritone chordG Em baritone chordEm
I know Saint Peter will call my name ,
C baritone chordC D baritone chordD
never an honest word
Bm baritone chordBm Em baritone chordEm
But that was when I ruled the world

C baritone chordC - D baritone chordD - Bm baritone chordBm - Em baritone chordEm and fading...
Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh
