Coldplay - Viva La Vida

[intro] x2
Db  Eb  Ab  Fm

[verse 1]
Fm        Db        Eb
I used to rule the world
           Ab                    Fm
Seas would rise when I gave the word
                     Db       Eb
Now in the morning I sleep alone
          Ab                 Fm
Sweep the streets I used to own

[interlude] x2
Db  Eb  Ab  Fm

[verse 2]
Fm       Db         Eb
I used to roll the dice
          Ab                 Fm
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
              Db            Eb
Listen as the crowd would sing:
          Ab
"Now the old king is dead!
  Fm
Long live the king!"
  Fm         Db        Eb
One minute I held the key
         Ab                    Fm
Next the walls were closed on me
                          Db        Eb
And I discovered that my castles stand
     Ab                    Fm
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

[chorus]
  Db              Eb
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Ab             Fm
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Db                Eb
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield
   Ab                 Fm
My missionaries in a foreign field
Db                 Eb
For some reason I can't explain
Ab                     Fm
Once you go there was never,
          Db      Eb
never an honest word
         Cm               Fm
That was when I ruled the world

[verse 3]
Fm                   Db     Eb
It was the wicked and wild wind
              Ab               Fm
Blew down the doors to let me in.
                          Db        Eb
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
       Ab                    Fm
People couldn't believe what I'd become
Fm       Db      Eb
Revolutionaries wait
        Ab               Fm
For my head on a silver plate
                   Db      Eb
Just a puppet on a lonely string
   Ab                         Fm
Oh who would ever want to be king?

[chorus]
  Db              Eb
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Ab             Fm
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Db                Eb
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield
   Ab                 Fm
My missionaries in a foreign field
Db                 Eb
For some reason I can't explain
  Ab                     Fm
I know Saint Peter won't call my name ,
   Db            Eb
never an honest word
              Cm               Fm
But that was when I ruled the world
