Viva La Vida - Chris Mann[00:00:02]
I used to rule the world[00:00:12]
Seas would rise when I gave the word[00:00:16]
Now in the morning I sweep alone[00:00:19]
Sweep the streets I used to own[00:00:23]
I used to roll the dice[00:00:33]
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes[00:00:37]
Listen as the crowd would sing:[00:00:40]
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"[00:00:44]
One minute I held the key[00:00:47]
Next the walls were closed on me[00:00:51]
And I discovered that my castles stand[00:00:54]
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand[00:00:57]
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing[00:01:02]
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing[00:01:05]
Be my mirror my sword and shield[00:01:08]
My missionaries in a foreign field[00:01:12]
For some reason I can't explain[00:01:15]
Once you go there was never, never an honest word[00:01:19]
That was when I ruled the world[00:01:25]
It was the wicked and wild wind[00:01:35]
Blew down the doors to let me in.[00:01:39]
Shattered windows and the sound of drums[00:01:42]
People couldn't believe what I'd become[00:01:46]
Revolutionaries wait[00:01:49]
For my head on a silver plate[00:01:52]
Just a puppet on a lonely string[00:01:56]
Oh who would ever want to be king?[00:02:00]
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing[00:02:04]
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing[00:02:07]
Be my mirror my sword and shield[00:02:10]
My missionaries in a foreign field[00:02:14]
For some reason I can't explain[00:02:17]
I know Saint Peter won't call my name[00:02:21]
Never an honest word[00:02:24]
But that was when I ruled the world[00:02:27]
ooooo ooooo ooooo oooooo ooooo[00:02:37]
(repeat with chorus)[00:02:40]
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing[00:02:59]
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing[00:03:06]
Be my mirror my sword and shield[00:03:09]
I know Saint Peter won't call my name[00:03:13]
My missionaries in a foreign field[00:03:13]
Never an honest word[00:03:16]
For some reason I can't explain[00:03:16]
But that was when I ruled the world[00:03:19]
