Love the song =w=
This is a Bonustrack from the new album "Hurley"
D    E    A    F#m
D    E    A    F#m
          D        E
I used to rule the world 
           A                    F#m
Seas would rise when I gave the word 
                     D       E
Now in the morning I sleep alone 
          A                 F#m
Sweep the streets I used to own
D    E    A    F#m
D    E    A    F#m
          D        E
I used to roll the dice 
          A                 F#m
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes 
              D            E
Listen as the crowd would sing: 
          A                F#m
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
             D        E
One minute I held the key 
         A                    F#m
Next the walls were closed on me 
                          D        E
And I discovered that my castles stand 
     A                   F#m
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand 
  D              E
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing 
A             F#m
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing 
D                E
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield 
   A                 F#m
My missionaries in a foreign field 
D                 E
For some reason I can't explain 
A                     F#m             D      E
Once you go there was never, never an honest word
         C#m              F#m
That was when I ruled the world 
D    E    A    F#m
D    E    A    F#m
                      D    E
It was the wicked and wild wind 
              A               F#m
Blew down the doors to let me in
                          D        E
Shattered windows and the sound of drums 
       A                     F#m
People couldn't believe what I'd become
          D     E
Revolutionaries wait 
        A               F#m
For my head on a silver plate 
                   D      E
Just a puppet on a lonely string
   A                         F#m
Oh who would ever want to be king? 
  D              E
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing 
A             F#m
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing 
D                E
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield 
   A                 F#m
My missionaries in a foreign field 
D                 E
For some reason I can't explain 
  A                     F#m                    D      E
I know Saint Peter will call my name, never an honest word
              C#m              F#m
But that was when I ruled the world  
D      F#m
D      F#m
D      F#m
E      E
D    E    A    F#m
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)
D    E    A    F#m
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)
  D              E
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing 
A             F#m
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing 
D                E
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield 
   A                 F#m
My missionaries in a foreign field 
D                 E
For some reason I can't explain 
  A                     F#m                    D      E
I know Saint Peter will call my name, never an honest word
              C#m               F#m
But that was when I ruled the world  
D    E    A    F#m
D    E    A    F#m
