INTRO: D D - E E - A A - F#m F#m    x2

(F#m F#m) D D E E
I used to rule the world
A A F#m F#m
Seas would rise when I gave the word
D D E E
Now in the morning I sleep alone
A A F#m F#m
Sweep the streets I used to own

D D - E E - A A - F#m F#m x2

(F#m F#m) D D E E
I used to roll the dice
A A F#m F#m
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
D D E E
Listen as the crowd would sing:
A A F#m F#m
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"


(F#m F#m) D D E E
One minute I held the key
A A F#m F#m
Next the walls were closed on me
D D E E
And I discovered that my castles stand
A A F#m F#m
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

D D E E
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
A A F#m F#m
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
D D E E
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield
A A F#m F#m
My missionaries in a foreign field
D D E E
For some reason I can't explain
A A F#m F#m D D E E
Once you go there was never, never an honest word
C#m C#m F#m F#m
That was when I ruled the world

D D - E E - A A - F#m F#m x2

(F#m F#m) D D E E
It was the wicked and wild wind
A A F#m F#m
Blew down the doors to let me in.
D D E E
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
A A F#m F#m
People couldn't believe what I'd become

(F#m F#m) D D E E
Revolutionaries wait
A A F#m F#m
For my head on a silver plate
D D E E
Just a puppet on a lonely string
A A F#m F#m
Oh who would ever want to be king?


D D E E
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
A A F#m F#m
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
D D E E
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield
A A F#m F#m
My missionaries in a foreign field
D D E E
For some reason I can't explain
A A F#m F#m
I know Saint Peter will call my name ,
D D E E
never an honest word
C#m C#m F#m F#m
But that was when I ruled the world

D D - F#m F#m x3
E E x2


D D - E E - A A - F#m F#m x2
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)

D D E E
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
A A F#m F#m
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
D D E E
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield
A A F#m F#m
My missionaries in a foreign field
D D E E
For some reason I can't explain
A A F#m F#m
I know Saint Peter will call my name ,
D D E E
never an honest word
C#m C#m F#m F#m
But that was when I ruled the world

D D - E E - C#m C#m - F#m F#m and fading...
Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh
