C# | D# | G# | Fm | C# | D# 
G# | Fm 

[Verse 1]
---------------------
          C#       D#
I used to rule the world
           G#                   Fm
Seas would rise when I gave the word
                     C#     D#
Now in the morning I sleep alone
          G#                Fm
sweep the streets I used to own

[Bridge]

C# | D# | G# | Fm | C# | D# | G# | Fm 

[Verse 2]
---------------------
          C#       D#
I used to roll the dice
         G#                 Fm
feel the fear in my enemies eyes
              C#          D#
listen as the crowd would sing
         G#                    Fm
"Now the old king is dead Long live The King"
             C#       D#
One minute I held the key
         G#                    Fm
Next the walls were closed on me 
                            C#   D#
And I discovered that my castles stand
     G#                      Fm
upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
  C#             D#
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
G#            Fm
Roman cavalry choirs are singing
C#               D#
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
   G#                  Fm
My missionaries in the foreign field
C#                D#
For some reason I can't explain
G#                    Fm
Once you'd gone there was never
          C#    D#
Never an honest word
             G#               Fm
But that was when I ruled the world

[Verse 3]
---------------------
                      C#   D#
It was the wicked and wild wind
              G#              Fm
blew down the doors to let me in
                          C#       D#
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
       G#                    Fm
People couldn't believe what I'd become
         C#     D#
Revolutionaries wait
       G#               Fm
For my head on a silver plate
                   C#     D#
Just a puppet on a lonely string
   G#                        Fm
Oh who would ever want to be king

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
  C#             D#
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
G#            Fm
Roman cavalry choirs are singing
C#               D#
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
   G#                  Fm
My missionaries in the foreign field
C#                D#
For some reason I can't explain
  G#                     Fm
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
      C#        D#
Never an honest word
             G#               Fm
But that was when I ruled the world

Hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
G#            Fm
Roman cavalry choirs are singing
C#               D#
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
   G#                  Fm
My missionaries in the foreign field
C#                D#
For some reason I can't explain
  G#                     Fm
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
      C#        D#
Never an honest word
             Cm               Fm
But that was when I ruled the world
