STANDARD TUNING - CAPO 1
[Intro]
B - C# - F# - D#m x2
(Em) B C#
I used to rule the world
F# D#m
Seas would rise when I gave the word
B C#
Now in the morning I sweep alone
F# D#m
Sweep the streets I used to own
B - C# - F# - D#m x2
(Em) B C#
I used to roll the dice
F# D#m
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
B C#
Listen as the crowd would sing:
F# D#m
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
(Em) B C#
One minute I held the key
F# D#m
Next the walls were closed on me
B C#
And I discovered that my castles stand
F# D#m
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
B C#
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
F# D#m
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
B C#
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield
F# D#m
My missionaries in a foreign field
B C#
For some reason I can't explain
F# D#m B C#
Once you go there was never, never an honest word
A#m D#m
That was when I ruled the world
B - C# - F# - D#m x2
(Em) B C#
It was the wicked and wild wind
F# D#m
Blew down the doors to let me in.
B C#
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
F# D#m
People couldn't believe what I'd become
(Em) B C#
Revolutionaries wait
F# D#m
For my head on a silver plate
B C#
Just a puppet on a lonely string
F# D#m
Oh who would ever want to be king?
B C#
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
F# D#m
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
B C#
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield
F# D#m
My missionaries in a foreign field
B C#
For some reason I can't explain
F# D#m
I know Saint Peter will call my name ,
B C#
never an honest word
A#m D#m
But that was when I ruled the world
B - D#m x3

B - C# - F# - D#m x2

Creased cut stones and bibles
Are all out to fade their rifles

There in me and I’m…
