Coldplay - Viva La Vida: chords

Intro: C# D# G# Fm - x2

           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.

C# D# G# Fm - x2

           C#       D#
I used to roll the dice,
          G#                Fm
Feel the fear in my enemy's 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


      C#             D#
   I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing,
    Cm             Fm
   Roman cavalry choirs are singing:
     C#                D#
   "Be my mirror, my sword and shield,
       G#                Fm
   My missionaries in a foreign field".

   C#                 D#
   For some reason I can't explain,
   Cm                  Fm
   Once you go, there was never,
             C#     D#
   Never an honest word
              G#              Fm
   That was when I ruled the world.

C# D# G# Fm - x2

                     C#   D#
It was a 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?


      C#             D#
   I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing,
    Cm             Fm
   Roman cavalry choirs are singing:
     C#                D#
   "Be my mirror, my sword and shield,
       G#                Fm
   My missionaries in a foreign field".

   C#                 D#
   For some reason I can't explain,
       Cm                  Fm
   I know St. Peter won't call my name.
             C#     D#
   Never an honest word
                  G#              Fm
   But that was when I ruled the world.
