Intro

^Db ^Eb ^Ab ^Fm

Verse 1

I used to ^Dbrule the ^Ebworld

Seas would ^Abrise when I gave the ^Fmword

Now in the morning I ^Dbsleep ^Ebalone

Sweep the ^Abstreets I used to ^Fmown

^Db ^Eb ^Ab ^Fm

Verse 2

I used to ^Dbroll the ^Ebdice

Feel the ^Abfear in my enemy's ^Fmeyes

Ooh oh oh oh ^Ebooh ^Dboh

Listen as the ^Dbcrowd would ^Ebsing

"Now the ^Abold king is dead! ^FmLong live the king!"

One minute I ^Dbheld the ^Ebkey

Next the ^Abwalls were closed on ^Fmme

And I discovered that my ^Dbcastles ^Ebstand

Upon ^Abpillars of salt and ^Fmpillars of sand

Chorus

I ^Dbhear Jerusalem ^Ebbells are ringing

^AbRoman Cavalry ^Fmchoirs are singing

^DbBe my mirror, my ^Ebsword and shield

Upon ^Fmpillars of salt and ^Abpillars of sand

My ^Abmissionaries in a ^Fmforeign field

^DbFor some reason I ^Ebcan't explain

^AbOnce you'd gone it was^Fm never

Never an ^Dbhonest ^Ebword

And that was ^Abwhen I ruled the ^Fmworld

^Db ^Eb ^Ab ^Fm

Verse 3

It was the wicked and ^Dbwild ^Ebwind

My ^Fmmissionaries in a ^Abforeign field

Blew down the ^Abdoors to let me ^Fmin

Shattered windows and the ^Dbsound of ^Ebdrums

People ^Abcouldn't believe what ^FmI'd become

Revolutio^Dbnaries ^Ebwait

For my ^Abhead on a silver ^Fmplate

Just a puppet on a ^Dblonely ^Ebstring

Oh, ^Abwho would ever want to be ^Fmking?

Chorus

I ^Dbhear Jerusalem ^Ebbells are ringing

^AbRoman Cavalry ^Fmchoirs are singing

^DbBe my mirror, my ^Ebsword and shield

Shattered windows and the ^Ebsound of ^Dbdrums

My ^Abmissionaries in a ^Fmforeign field

^DbFor some reason I ^Ebcan't explain

I ^Abknow Saint Peter won't ^Fmcall my name

Never an ^Dbhonest ^Ebword

And that was ^Abwhen I ruled the ^Fmworld

^Db ^Eb ^Db ^Eb

^Db ^Eb ^Fm

Bridge

Ooh oh oh oh ^Dbooh ^Eboh

Ooh oh oh oh ^Abooh ^Fmoh

Ooh oh oh oh ^Dbooh ^Eboh

Never an ^Ebhonest ^Dbword

Ooh oh oh oh ^Abooh ^Fmoh

Ooh oh oh oh ooh oh

Chorus

I ^Dbhear Jerusalem ^Ebbells are ringing

^AbRoman Cavalry ^Fmchoirs are singing

Never an ^Ebhonest ^Dbword

^DbBe my mirror, my ^Ebsword and shield

My ^Abmissionaries in a ^Fmforeign field

^DbFor some reason I ^Ebcan't explain

I ^Abknow Saint Peter won't ^Fmcall my name

Never an ^Dbhonest ^Ebword

And that was ^Abwhen I ruled the world
