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

[Verse]
F#m
Was a long and dark December
From the rooftops I remember
D Bm
There was snow, white snow
F#m
Clearly I remember from the windows
D
They were watching while we froze
Bm
Down below
[Chorus]
D
When the future architecture
E F#m
By a carnival of idiots on show
E
You better lie low
D A F#m Bm E F#m
If you love me, won’t you let me know
[Verse]
F#m
Was a long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals
D Bm
And the frost became gone
F#m
Creased cut stones and bibles
Are all out to fade their rifles
D Bm
And the cross was held aloft
[Chorus]
D
There in me and I’m…
E
When I’m dead and hit the ground
F#m E
Legs are cold, unfold
D A F#m Bm E F#m
If you love me, won’t you let me know
[Guitar solo]
F#m F#m D Bm x2
[Chorus]
D
I don’t wanna be a soldier
E
With a captain of some sinking ship
F#m
With snow
E
Far below
D A F#m Bm E F#m
So, if you love me, why’d you let me go
[Outro]
A D C#m D
I took my love down to Violet Hill
F#m Bm D
There we sat in snow
F#m Bm D C#m
All that time she was silenced still
A D A F#m Bm E F#m Bm
So, if you love me, won’t you let me know?
A D A F#m Bm E F#m
If you love me, won’t you let me know?
