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