[Db] [Eb]
[Ab] [Fm]
[Db] [Eb]
[Ab] [Fm] I used [Db] to rule the world, [Ab] seize and rise when I [Fm] gave the word.
Now in the morning [Db] I sleep [Eb] alone, sweep [Ab] the streets I [Fm] used to roam.
[Db] [Eb]
[Ab] [Fm]
[Db] [Eb]
[Ab] [Fm] I used [Db] to roll [Eb] the dice, feel [Ab] 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 [Db] I held the key, next [Ab] the walls were [Fm] closed on me.
And I discovered [Db] what my [Eb] castle stand, [Ab] upon pillars of [Fm] salt and pillars of sand.
[Db] [Eb] Bells are ringing, [Ab] Roman [Fm] Catholic choirs are singing.
[Db] Keep 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] once he had [Fm] gone there was never, never [Db] an [Eb] honest word.
And [Ab] that was when I [Fm] ruled the world.
[Db] It [Fm]
[Db]
[Fm] was the wicked [Db] and wild wind, blew [Ab] down the doors to [Fm] let me in.
Shattered windows [Db] and the sound [Eb] of drums, [Ab] people couldn't [Fm] believe what I'd become.
And
[Db] revolutionaries [Eb] wait [Fm] for my hand on a silver plate.
Just a puppet [Db] on a [Eb] lonely string, [Ab] off to whatever [Fm] one of you came.
[Dbm] I hear [Eb] Jerusalem bells are ringing, [Ab] Roman [Fm] Catholic choirs are singing.
[Db] Keep my [Eb] mirror, my sword and shield, [Ab] my [Fm] missionaries in the foreign field.
[Db] For some reason [Eb] I can't [Bbm] explain, [Ab] I know Saint [G] Peter won't call my name.
[Db] Never an [Eb] honest word, but [Ab] that was when I ruled [Fm] the world.
