Viva La Vida (cover)(Chords)

	        
(A E F#m D) 

I used to rule the world 
Seas would rise when I gave the word 
Now in the morning I sleep alone 
Sweep the streets that I used to own 

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

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing 
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing 
Be my Chris and I'll be your Gwyneth 
My missionaries hiding in foreign trenches 

For some reason I can't explain 
Once you go there was never 
Never an honest word 
And that was when I ruled the world 

It was the wicked and a wild wind 
Like just The Doors love her Madley and let her in 
Shattered windows and the sound of drums 
People couldn't believe what I've become 

Revolutionaries wait 
For my blonde head on a silver plate 
Just a Gaga on a lonely string 
Oh who would ever want to be queen? 

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing 
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing 
Be my Chris and I'll be your Gwyneth 
My missionaries hiding in foreign trenches 

For some reason that I can't explain 
I know Yves Saint Laurent no he won't call my name 
Never an honest word 
But that was when I ruled the world 

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing 
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing 
Be my Chris and I'll be your Gwyneth 
The fame won't change us if we don't let it 

For some reason I can't explain 
I know Saint Mary won't call my name 
Never an h-honest word 
But that was when I ruled the world, ruled the world, 
Ruled the world.
