Interlude 1
(C major) (D7) (G major) (E minor7)
(C major) (D7) (G major) (E minor7)
Verse 2
I used to (C major) roll the (D7) dice
Feel the (G major) fear in my enemy's (E minor7) eyes
Listen as the (C major) crowd would (D7) sing
Now the (G major) old king is dead, long (E minor7) live the king
One minute I (C major) held the (D7) key
Next the (G major) walls were closed on (E minor7) me
And I discovered that my (C major) castles (D7) stand
Upon (G major) pillars of salt and pil (E minor7) lards of sand
Chorus 1
I (C major) hear Jerusalem (D7) bells are ringing
(G major) Roman Cavalry (E minor7) choirs are singing
(C major) Be my mirror, my (D7) sword and shield
My (G major) missionaries in a (E minor7) foreign field
(C major) For some reason I (D7) can't explain
(G major) Once you go there (E minor7) was never,
never an (C major) honest (D7) word
And that was (G major) when I ruled the (E minor7) world
Interlude 2
(C major) (D7) (G major) (E minor7)
(C major) (D7) (G major) (E minor7)
Verse 3
It was a wicked and wild (C major) (D7) wind
Blew down the (G major) doors to let me (E minor7) in
Shattered windows and the (C major) sound of (D7) drums
People (G major) couldn't believe what (E minor7) I'd become
Revolution (C major) aries (D7) wait
For my (G major) head on a silver (E minor7) plate
Just a puppet on a (C major) lonely (D7) string
Oh, (G major) who would ever want to be (E minor7) king?
Chorus 2
I (C major) hear Jerusalem (D7) bells are ringing
(G major) Roman Cavalry (E minor7) choirs are singing
(C major) Be my mirror, my (D7) sword and shield
My (G major) missionaries in a (E minor7) foreign field
(C major) For some reason I (D7) can't explain
I (G major) know Saint Peter won't (E minor7) call my name
Never an (C major) honest (D7) word
But that was (G major) when I ruled the (E minor7) world
Bridge 1

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, (C major) (D7) oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, (G major) (E minor7) oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh...

I (G major) know Saint Peter won't (E minor7) call my name
Never an (C major) honest (D7) word
But that was (G major) when I ruled the (E minor7) world
