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

Was a long and dark December
From the rooftops I remember

There was snow, white snow

By a carnival of idiots on show

You better lie low

If you love me, won’t you let me know
[Verse]
Gm
Was a long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals
D# Cm
And the frost became gone
Gm
Creased cut stones and bibles
Are all out to fade their rifles
D# Cm
And the cross was held aloft
[Chorus]
D#
There in me and I’m…

When I’m dead and hit the ground

Legs are cold, unfold

If you love me, won’t you let me know

If you love me, won’t you let me know?
