INTRO: C# - D# - G# - Fm    x2

(Fm)      C#        D#
I used to rule the world 
           G#                    Fm
Seas would rise when I gave the word 
                     C#       D#
Now in the morning I sleep alone 
          G#                 Fm
Sweep the streets I used to own

C# - D# - G# - Fm    x2

(Fm)      C#         D#
I used to roll the dice 
          G#                 Fm
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes 
              C#            D#
Listen as the crowd would sing: 
          G#                 Fm
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"


(Fm)         C#        D#
One minute I held the key 
         G#                    Fm
Next the walls were closed on me 
                          C#        D#
And I discovered that my castles stand 
     G#                    Fm
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand 

  C#              D#
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing 
G#             Fm
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing 
C#                D#
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield 
   G#                 Fm
My missionaries in a foreign field 
C#                 D#
For some reason I can't explain 
G#                     Fm              C#      D#
Once you go there was never, never an honest word
         Cm               Fm 
That was when I ruled the world 

C# - D# - G# - Fm    x2

(Fm)                  C#     D#
It was the wicked and wild wind 
              G#               Fm
Blew down the doors to let me in. 
                          C#        D#
Shattered windows and the sound of drums 
       G#                    Fm
People couldn't believe what I'd become

(Fm)     C#      D#
Revolutionaries wait 
        G#               Fm
For my head on a silver plate 
                   C#      D#
Just a puppet on a lonely string
   G#                         Fm
Oh who would ever want to be king? 


  C#              D#
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing 
G#             Fm
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing 
C#                D#
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield 
   G#                 Fm
My missionaries in a foreign field 
C#                 D#
For some reason I can't explain 
  G#                     Fm              
I know Saint Peter will call my name ,
   C#            D# 
never an honest word
              Cm               Cm 
But that was when I ruled the world  

C# - Fm x3
D# x2


C# - D# - G# - Fm    x2
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)

  C#              D#
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing 
G#             Fm
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing 
C#                D#
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield 
   G#                 Fm
My missionaries in a foreign field 
C#                 D#
For some reason I can't explain 
  G#                     Fm              
I know Saint Peter will call my name ,
   C#            D# 
never an honest word
              Cm                Fm 
But that was when I ruled the world  

C# - D# - Fm - Cm              and fading...
Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh
