| Intro: |
| C D G Em x2 |
| Em C D |
| I used to rule the world |
| G Em |
| Seas would rise when I gave the word |
| C D |
| Now in the morning I sleep alone |
| G Em |
| Sweep the streets I used to own |
| Bridge: |
| C D G Em x2 |
| Em C D |
| I used to roll the dice |
| G Em |
| Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes |
| C D |
| Listen as the crowd would sing: |
| G Em |
| "Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!" |
| Em C D |
| One minute I held the key |
| G Em |
| Next the walls were closed on me |
| C D |
| And I discovered that my castles stand |
| G Em |
| Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand |
| C D |
| I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing |
| G Em |
| Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
| C D |
| Be my mirror, my sword, and shield |
| G Em |
| My missionaries in a foreign field |
| C D |
| For some reason I can't explain |
| G Em C D |
| Once you go there was never, never an honest word |
| Bm Em |
| That was when I ruled the world |
| Bridge: |
| C D G Em x2 |
| Em C D |
| It was the wicked and wild wind |
| G Em |
| Blew down the doors to let me in. |
| C D |
| Shattered windows and the sound of drums |
| G Em |
| People couldn't believe what I'd become |
| Em C D |
| Revolutionaries wait |
| G Em |
| For my head on a silver plate |
| C D |
| Just a puppet on a lonely string |
| G Em |
| Oh who would ever want to be king? |
| C D |
| I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing |
| G Em |
| Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
| C D |
| Be my mirror, my sword, and shield |
| G Em |
| My missionaries in a foreign field |
| C D |
| For some reason I can't explain |
| G Em |
| I know Saint Peter will call my name, |
| C D |
| never an honest word |
| Bm Em |
| But that was when I ruled the world |
