                  G - F
Welcome to your life 
There's no turning back 
Even while we sleep 
We will find you 
Dm             Em
Acting on your best behaviour 
Dm             Em
Turn your back on mother nature 
Dm   Em   F        G            G - F
Everybody wants to rule the world 

                 G - F
It's my own design 
It's my own remorse 
Help me to decide 
                  Dm
Help me make the most 
                  Em
Of freedom and of pleasure 
F             Em
Nothing ever lasts forever 
Dm   Em    F        G          F
Everybody wants to rule the world

There's a room where the light won't find you 
F                      C           G              F
Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down 
                     C         G
When they do I'll be right behind you 
Dm              Em
So glad we've almost made it 
F                  Em
So sad they had to fade it 
Dm   Em    F        G             C          G/C
Everybody wants to rule the world

Dm               Em
I can't stand this indecision 
F                  Em
Married with a lack of vision 
Dm   Em    F        G                 
Everybody wants to rule the world 
Dm                                      Em
Say that you'll never never never never need it 
F                      Em
One headline why believe it ? 
Dm   Em    F        G             C9/7
Everybody wants to rule the world 
Dm                     Em
All for freedom and for pleasure

Nothing ever lasts forever 
Dm   Em    F        G              C
Everybody wants to rule the world
