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

For some reason I can't explain

I know Saint Peter will call my name ,

Was a long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals
C# A#m
And the frost became gone

Creased cut stones and bibles
Are all out to fade their rifles
C# A#m
And the cross was held aloft
[Chorus]
C#
There in me and I’m…

When I’m dead and hit the ground
