Viva La Vida piano leadsheet with chords

I used to rule the world.

Seas would rise when I gave the word.

Now in the morning I sleep alone,

sweep the streets I used to own.

I used to roll the dice,

feel the fear in my enemies' 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 on were closed on me.

And I discovered that my castles stand upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand.

I hear Jerusalem bells aringing,

Roman cavalry choirs are singing.

Be my mirror, my sword and shield,

my missionaries in a foreign field.

For some reason I can't explain.

never an honest word.

And that was when I ruled the world.

It was a wicked and wild wind blew down the doors to let me in.

Shattered windows and the sound of drums.

People couldn't believe what I'd become.

Revolutionaries wait for my head on were silver plate.

And Just a puppet on a lonely string.

Ah, on who would ever na be king?

of sand.

I hear Jerusalem bells aringing,

Roman cavalry choirs are singing.

Be my mirror, my sword and shield,

my missionaries in a foreign field.

For some reason I can't explain.

I know Saint Peter won't call my name,

never an est word.

But that was when I ruled the world.

It was a wicked and wild wind blew down the doors to let me in.

Shattered windows and the

Oh,

oh,

oh,

oh,

oh. honest word.

But that was when I ruled the world.

Ooh.

Ooh.
