STANDARD TUNING - CAPO 1
INTRO: F - C - C - Am x2
(Am) F C
I used to rule the world
Seas would Crise when I gave the Amword
Now in the morning I Fsweep alCone
Sweep the Cstreets I used to Amown
F - C - C - Am x2
(Am) F C
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fCear in my enemy's Ameyes
Listen as the Fcrowd would sCing:
"Now Cthe old king is deAmad! Long live the king!"
(Am) F C
One minute I held the key
Next the Cwalls were closed on Amme
And I discovered that my cFastles stCand
Upon Cpillars of salt and pAmillars of sand
I Fhear Jerusalem Cbells are ringing
CRoman Cavalry Amchoirs are singing
FBe my mirror, my Csword, and shield
My Cmissionaries in a Amforeign field
FFor some reason I Ccan't explain
COnce you go there was Amnever, never an Fhonest Cword
That was Emwhen I ruled the Amworld
F - C - C - Am x2
(Am) F C
It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the Cdoors to let me Amin.
Shattered windows and the Fsound of Cdrums
People Ccouldn't believe whatAm I'd become
(Am) F C
Revolutionaries wait
For my hCead on a silver Amplate
Just a puppet on a Flonely Cstring
Oh Cwho would ever want to be Amking?
F - C - C - Am x2
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)
I Fhear Jerusalem Cbells are ringing
CRoman Cavalry Amchoirs are singing
FBe my mirror, my Csword, and shield
My Cmissionaries in a Amforeign field
FFor some reason I Ccan't explain
I Cknow Saint Peter will Amcall my name ,
nevFer an honest Cword
But that was wEmhen I ruled the woAmrld
