INTRO :
D|E|A|F#m ( 2 Times )
I used to ruleD the worldE
Seas wouAld rise when I gave the wordF#m
Now in the morning, I sleeDp aloneE
Sweep the streeAts I used to ownF#m
INSTRU :
D|E|A|F#m ( 2 Times )
I used to rollD the diceE
Feel the feaAr in my enemy's eyesF#m
Listen as the crowDd would singE
Now the oldA king is dead,
long liveF#m the king
One minute, I helDd the keyE
Next the wallsA were closed on meF#m
And I discovered that my casDtles standE
Upon pillAars of salt and pilF#mlars of sand
* I heaDr Jerusalem belEls a-ringin'
RoAman Cavalry choiF#mrs are singin'
BeD my mirror, my swoErd and shield
My misAsionaries in a forF#meign field
ForD some reason, I canE't explain
OncC#me you'd gone, there was neF#mver
never an honDest wordE
And that waAs when I ruled the worldF#m
INSTRU :
D|E|A|F#m ( 2 Times )
It was a wicked andD wild windE
Blew down the dooArs to let me in F#m
Shattered windows and the souDnd of drumEs
People couAldn't believe what I'dF#m become
RevolutionaDries waitE
For my heaAd on a silver plateF#m
Just a puppet on a lonDely stringE
Aw, whoA would ever wanna be kingF#m?
* I heaDr Jerusalem belEls a-ringin'
RoAman Cavalry choiF#mrs are singin'
BeD my mirror, my swoErd and shield
My misAsionaries in a forF#meign field
ForD some reason, I canE't explain
OncC#me you'd gone, there was neF#mver
never an honDest wordE
And that waAs when I ruled the worldF#m
