[Em] [C]
[G]
[Em] I [G] [C] used to
[G] rule the world, seas would rise when I [Em] gave the word, now in the morning [C] I sleep [G] alone.
I sweep the streets that I [Em] used to own, [G] [C]
[G]
[Em] [C]
[G]
[Em] I [G] used to roll the dice, feel the fear in my
[Em] enemies' eyes, listen [C] as the crowd [G] would sing, now the old king is dead, long live the king.
One minute I held the key, and the walls were closed [Em] on me, and I discovered [C] that my [G] castle
was a [Em] castle, and I was the king.
I [G] hear Jerusalem bells are ringing, Roman [Em] cavalry choirs are singing, [C] be my [G] mirror,
my sword and shield, missionaries in [Em] the foreign field, [C] for some [G] reason I can't explain.
Once you go, [Em] there was never, never [C] a no.
[G] I used to rule the world, that was when I ruled [Em] the world,
[G]
[Em] [G]
[C] [G]
[Em] it was [G] the wicked and wild
wind, blew down the doors and let [Em] me in, shatter windows [C] and the sound [G] of drums, people couldn't
believe [Em] what I'd become,
[C] [G] revolutionaries wait for my head on a [Em] silver plate, I'm just a puppet
[C] on a lonely [G] street, who would ever want to [Em] be king?
[G]
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing, Roman cavalry [Em] choirs are singing, [C] be my mirror,
[G] my sword and shield, missionaries in [Em] the foreign [G] field, for some reason I can't explain,
no saint Peter won't [Em] call my name, [C] such an [G] honest man, that was when I ruled the [Em] world.

[C] [G]
[Em] Oh [G] oh [C] [G] oh oh [Em]
[C] oh [G] oh oh oh
[Em] [G]
[C] I [G] hear Jerusalem bells are ringing, Roman cavalry [Em] choirs are [G] singing, be my mirror,
my sword and shield, missionaries [Em] in the foreign
[G] field, for some reason I can't explain,
I know Saint Peter [Em] won't call my name
[G] Such a loneliest world
That was when I [Em] ruled the world
