Viva la Vida Coldplay
Intro : C - D - G - Em x2
Verse 1:
[(Em)]I used to r[C]ule the [D]world
Seas wo[G]uld rise when [Em]I gave the word
Now in the m[C]orning [D]I sleep alone
Sweep t[G]he streets that I [Em]used to own
C - D - G - Em x2
Verse 2:
[(Em)]I used to r[C]oll the d[D]ice
Feel t[G]he fear in my [Em]enemy's eyes
Listen as [C]the crowd[D] would sing:
"Now [G]the old king [Em]is dead! Long live the king!"
Verse 3:
[(Em)]One minute[C] I held[D] the key
Next [G]the walls were [Em]closed on me
And I discovere[C]d that [D]my castles stand
U[G]pon pillars of sal[Em]t and pillars of sand
Chorus 1:
I [C]hear Jerusa[D]lem bells are ringing
[G]Roman Ca[Em]valry Choirs are singing
[C]Be my mirro[D]r, my sword, my shield
M[G]y missionarie[Em]s in a foreign field
[C]For some rea[D]son I can't explain
[G]Once you go th[Em]ere was nev[C]er, ne[D]ver an honest word
That [Bm]was when I ru[Em]led the world
C - D - G - Em x2
Verse 4:
[(Em)]It was the wicke[C]d an[D]d wild wind
Blew do[G]wn the door[Em]s to let me in
Shattered windo[C]ws and[D] the sound of drums
Peop[G]le couldn't bel[Em]ieve what I'd become
Verse 5:
[(Em)]Revoluti[C]onarie[D]s wait
For m[G]y head on [Em]a silver plate
Just a puppe[C]t on a [D]lonely string
O[G]h who would eve[Em]r want to be king ?
