[Eb]
[Ab] [Fm]
[Db] [Eb]
[Ab] [Fm] I used [Db] to rule [Ab] the world, seas would rise when I [Fm] gave the word
Now in the morning [Db] I sleep [Ab] alone, sweep the streets I [Fm] used to own
[Db] I [Eb]
[Ab] [Fm]
[Db] [Eb]
[Ab] [Fm]
used [Db] to roll [Eb] the dice, [Ab] feel the fear in my [Fm] enemies' eyes
Listen [Db] as the crowd [Eb] would sing, [Ab] now the old king is [Fm] dead, long live the king
One minute [Dbm] I [Bb] held the key, next [Ab] the walls were [Fm] closed on me
And I discovered that [Db] my [Ab] castle stood upon pillars of [Fm] salt and pillars of sand
[Db] I hear [Eb] Jerusalem bells a-ringing, [Ab] Roman [Fm] Catholic choirs a-singing
[Db] Be my [Bb] mirror, my sword and shield, [Ab] my missionaries [Fm] in the foreign field
[Db] For some [Bb] reason I can't explain, [C] once you [Fm] go there was never, never [Db] an [Eb] honest word
[Ab] That was when I [Fm] ruled the world
[Db] [Bb]
[Fm]
[Db]
[Ab] [Fm] It was a wicked [Db] and wild [Ab] wind, blew down the doors to [Fm] let me in
Shattered windows [Db] and the sound [Ab] of drums, people couldn't [Fm] believe what I'd become
[Db] [Eb] Revolutionaries wait for [Fm] my hand on a silver plate
Just a puppet [Db] on a [Eb] lonely string, [Ab] or who would ever [Fm] want to be king
[Dbm] I hear [Eb] Jerusalem bells a-ringing, [Ab] Roman [Fm] Catholic choirs a-singing
[Db] Be my [Eb] mirror, my sword and shield, [Ab] my missionaries [Fm] in the foreign field
[Db] For some [Eb] reason I can't explain, [Ab] I know Saint [F] Peter won't call my name
[Db] Never an [Eb] honest word, but [Ab] that was when I [Fm] ruled the world
