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

Was a long and dark December
From the rooftops I remember

By a carnival of idiots on show

You better lie low

If you love me, won’t you let me know
[Verse]
A#m
Was a long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals
F# D#m
And the frost became gone

Creased cut stones and bibles
Are all out to fade their rifles
F# D#m
And the cross was held aloft
[Chorus]
F#
There in me and I’m…
G#
When I’m dead and hit the ground
A#m G#
Legs are cold, unfold

If you love me, won’t you let me know

So, if you love me, why’d you let me go
