[Verse 1]
I used to Crule the Dworld
Seas would Grise when I gave the Emword
Now in the morning I Csleep aDlone
sweep the Gstreets I used to Emown
[Bridge]
C D G Em C D G Em
[Verse 2]
I used to Croll the Ddice
feel the Gfear in my enemies Emeyes
listen as the Ccrowd would Dsing
"Now the Gold king is dead Long Emlive The King"
One minute I Cheld the Dkey
Next the Gwalls were closed on mEme
And I discovered that my casCtles Dstand
upon Gpillars of salt and pillEmars of sand
[Chorus]
I Chear Jerusalem Dbells a ringing
GRoman cavalry Emchoirs are singing
CBe my mirror, my Dsword and shield
My Gmissonaries in the Emforeign field
CFor some reason I Dcan't explain
GOnce you go there Emwas never
Never an hConest Dword
But that was Gwhen I ruled the Emworld
[Instrumental]
C D G Em C D G Em
[Verse 3]
It was the wicked and Cwild Dwind
blew down the Gdoors to let me Emin
Shattered windows and the Csound of Ddrums
People Gcouldn't believe what EmI'd become
RevolutioCnaries Dwait
For my Ghead on a silver Emplate
Just a puppet on a Clonely Dstring
Oh Gwho would ever want to be Emking
[Chorus]
I Chear Jerusalem Dbells a ringing
GRoman cavalry Emchoirs are singing
CBe my mirror, my Dsword and shield
My Gmissonaries in the Emforeign field
CFor some reason I Dcan't explain
I Gknow Saint Peter will Emcall my name
Never Can honest Dword
But that was Gwhen I ruled the Emworld

[Chorus]
CHear Jerusalem Dbells a ringing
GRoman cavalry Emchoirs are singing

Never Can honest Dword
But that was Bmwhen I ruled the Emworld
