Intro
A B E C#m x2
[Verse 1]
C#m 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 sleep alone
E C#m
Sweep the streets I used to own
[Interlude]
A B E C#m x2
[Verse 2]
C#m 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!"
C#m 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
[Chorus]
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
[Interlude]
A B E C#m x2
[Verse 3]
C#m 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
C#m 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?
[Chorus]
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 won't call my name ,
A B
never an honest word
G#m C#m
But that was when I ruled the world
[Interlude]
A C#m x3
B x2
A B E C#m x2
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)
[Chorus]
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 won't call my name ,
A B
never an honest word
G#m C#m
But that was when I ruled the world
[Outro]
A B G#m C#m
Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh x2
