Intro: Db Eb Ab Fm (x2)


Fm Db Eb
I used to rule the world

Ab Fm
Seas would rise when I gave the world

Db Eb
Now in the morning I sweep alone

Ab Fm
Sweep the streets I used to own

Interlude: Db Eb Ab Fm (x2)

Fm Db Eb
I used to roll the dice

Ab Fm
Feel the fear in my enemy’s eyes

Db Eb
Listen as the crowd would sing:

Ab Fm
“Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!”

Db Eb
One minute I held the key

Ab Fm
Next the walls were closed on me

Db Eb
And I discovered that my castles stand

A Fm
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

Chorus 1:

Db Eb
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing

Ab Fm
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing

Db Eb
Be my mirror, my sword and shield

Ab Fm
My missionaries in a foreign field

Db Eb
For some reason I can’t explain

Ab Fm
Once you go there was never

Db Eb
Never an honest word

Ab Fm
That was when I ruled the world

Interlude: Db Eb Ab Fm (x2)

Db Eb
It was the wicked and wild wind

Ab Fm
Blew down the doors to let me in

Db Eb
Shattered windows and the sound of drums

Ab Fm
People couldn’t believe what I’d become

Db Eb
Revolutionaries wait

Ab Fm
For my head on a silver plate

Db Eb
Just a puppet on a lonely string

Ab Fm
Oh, who would ever want to be king?

Chorus 2:

Db Eb
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing



Ab Fm
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing

Db Eb
Be my mirror, my sword and shield

Ab Fm
My missionaries in a foreign field

Db Eb
For some reason I can’t explain

Ab Fm
I know Saint Peter will call my name

Db Eb
Never an honest word

Ab Fm
But that was when I ruled the world

Interlude: Db Fm (x3) Eb

Eb Db Eb Ab Fm
O oo ooohhh, o oo ooohhh

Db Eb Ab Fm
O oo ooohhh, o oo ooohhh

Db
O oo ooohh

Chorus 3:

Db Eb
Hear Jerusalem bells a ringing

(O oo ooohhh, o oo ooohhh)

Ab Fm
Roman Cavalry choirs a singing

(O oo ooohhh, o oo ooohhh)

Db Eb
Be my mirror my sword and shield

(O oo ooohhh, o oo ooohhh)

Ab Fm
My missionaries in a foreign field

(O oo ooohhh, o oo ooohhh)

Db Eb
For some reason I can’t explain

(O oo ooohhh, o oo ooohhh)

Ab Fm
I know Saint Peter will call my name

Db Eb
Never an honest word

Ab Fm
But that was when I ruled the world
