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

G#m
Was a long and dark December
From the rooftops I remember
E C#m
There was snow, white snow
G#m
Clearly I remember from the windows
E
They were watching while we froze
C#m
Down below
[Chorus]
E
When the future architecture
F# G#m
By a carnival of idiots on show
F#
You better lie low
E B G#m C#m F# G#m
If you love me, won’t you let me know
[Verse]
G#m
Was a long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals
E C#m
And the frost became gone
G#m
Creased cut stones and bibles
Are all out to fade their rifles
E C#m
And the cross was held aloft
[Chorus]
E
There in me and I’m…
F#
When I’m dead and hit the ground
G#m F#
Legs are cold, unfold
E B G#m C#m F# G#m
If you love me, won’t you let me know
[Guitar solo]
G#m G#m E C#m x2
[Chorus]
E
I don’t wanna be a soldier
F#
With a captain of some sinking ship

With snow

Far below

So, if you love me, why’d you let me go
[Outro]
B E D#m E
I took my love down to Violet Hill
G#m C#m E
There we sat in snow
G#m C#m E D#m
All that time she was silenced still
B E B G#m C#m F# G#m C#m
So, if you love me, won’t you let me know?
B E B G#m C#m F# G#m
If you love me, won’t you let me know?
