[00:06.60]I used to rule the world
[00:09.69]
[00:10.40]Seas would rise when I gave the word
[00:13.14]Now in the morning I sleep alone
[00:16.29]
[00:17.36]Sweep the streets I used to own
[00:20.40]
[00:35.20]I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
[00:38.72]Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
[00:42.11]Be my mirror my sword and shield
[00:45.57]My missionaries in a foreign field
[00:48.69]
[00:49.19]For some reason I can't explain
[00:52.08]
[00:52.72]Once you go there was never
[00:55.38]Never an honest word
[00:58.53]
[00:59.15]And that was when I ruled the world
[01:01.91]
[01:16.22]I used to roll the dice feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
[01:23.09]Listen as the crowd would sing
[01:26.19]
[01:27.00]Now the old king is dead long live the king
[01:29.98]One minute I held the key
[01:32.90]
[01:33.87]Next the walls were closed on me
[01:36.71]And I discovered that my castles stand
[01:39.75]
[01:41.05]Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
[01:43.66]
[01:44.79]I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
[01:48.34]Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
[01:51.78]Be my mirror my sword and shield
[01:55.18]My missionaries in a foreign field
[01:58.25]
[01:58.87]For some reason I can't explain
[02:01.63]
[02:02.21]Once you go there was never
[02:04.83]Never an honest word
[02:08.08]
[02:08.67]And that was when I ruled the world

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 hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
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
Once you go there was never
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world
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 mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
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
