[Verse 2]
It was a wicked and Db5wild Ab5wind
Blew down the C5doors to let me Fmin
Shattered windows and the Db5sound of Ab5drums
People cC5ouldn't believe what IFm'd become

For my C5head on a silver Fmplate
Just a puppet on a Db5lonely strAb5ing
Oh who C5would ever want to be Fmking?

I Abmaj7know Saint Peter won't Fm7call my name

But that was wAbmaj7hen I ruled the Fm7world
