VIVA LA VIDA - Ab - Coldplay - Kar
[00:12.65] I used to rule the world
[00:16.40] Seas would rise when I gave the word
[00:19.15] Now in the morning I sleep alone
[00:23.40] Sweep the streets I used to own
[00:40.15] I used to roll the dice
[00:44.40] Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
[00:47.15] Listen as the crowd would sing
[00:51.66] Now the old king is dead
[00:53.16] Long live the king
[00:54.40] One minute I held the key
[00:58.15] Next the walls were closed on me
[01:00.90] And I discovered that my castles stand
[01:05.15] Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
[01:09.16] I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
[01:12.90] Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
[01:16.40] Be my mirror, my sword and shield
[01:19.65] My missionaries in a foreign field
[01:23.35] For some reason I can't explain
[01:26.85] Once you go there was never
[01:29.35] Never a honest word
[01:33.10] And that was when I ruled the world
[01:49.85] It was a wicked and wild wind
[01:54.10] Blew down the doors to let me in
[01:57.10] Shattered windows and the sound of drums
[02:01.10] People couldn't believe what I'd become
[02:05.10] Revolutionaries wait
[02:08.35] For my head on a silver plate
[02:11.85] Just a puppet on a lonely string
[02:15.35] Oh, who would ever want to be king?
[02:18.85] I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
[02:22.35] Roman Calvary choirs are singing
[02:25.86] Be my mirror, my sword and shield
[02:29.35] My missionaries in a foreign field
[02:32.85] For some reason I can't explain
[02:36.10] I know Saint Peter won't call my name
[02:39.35] Never an honest word
[02:42.60] But that was when I ruled the world
[02:59.10] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[03:02.60] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[03:06.10] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[03:09.60] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh…
[03:14.35] I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
[03:18.10] Roman Calvary choirs are singing
[03:21.60] Be my mirror, my sword and shield
[03:24.85] My missionaries in a foreign field
[03:28.35] For some reason I can't explain
[03:31.84] I know Saint Peter won't call my name
[03:34.84] Never an honest word
[03:38.35] But that was when I ruled the world
