Viva La Vida (Coldplay)

8  8   8    8  -9  -8
I used to rule the world.
-8    6    -8    -8  7  8    6   -6 
Seas would rise when I gave the word.
8   8   8   8    8  8  8    -9 -8
Now in the morn-ing I sweep a-lone.
-8     6    -8   -8  -8  8  7 -7 -6
Sweep the streets I used to o--w--n.

8  8   8   8   -9   -8
I used to roll the dice.
-8    6  -8   -8 6  -8 -8 8   7 -7-6
Feel the fear in my e-ne-my's e-y-es.
8    8  8   8    8    -9    -8
Lis-ten as the crowd would sing.
7     7   8   -8   7   7    
"Now the old king is dead!
7     8    -8  7  7
Long live the kin-g!"

-10 -10 -10  -10 -10  8   9 
One  mi-nute  I held the key.
9     9    9    7     9    -8  8
Next the walls were closed on me.
6   8  8  8    8     8   
And I di-sco-vered that 
8    8  -9    -8
my ca-stles stand.
7  7   8  -8    7  7    8   
U-pon pil-lars of salt and 
-8   7    7   -7
pil-lars of sand.

7 -10 -10 -10 9 -10  9    -8  8   -9
I hear Je-ru-sa-lem bells a ring-ing.
9  9   9  8   9   8    -6    -7   7
Ro-man Ca-val-ry choirs are sing-ing.
-10 -10 -10  9   -10  9     -8  8   -9
Be  my  mir-ror, my sword, and shie-ld.
8   9   8   9  9   8  9  8  -6   -7  7
My mis-sio-nar-ies in a fo-reign fie-ld.

9     9   9  -9  9 -10   -10 -10
For some rea-son I can't ex-plain.
9     9   9   9    9   -9  8
Once you go, there was ne-ver.
-9 8   8  8   -9   -8
Ne-ver an ho-nest word.
-9   -8   -7     
That was when
7   8    -7    7
I ruled the world.
