Viva La Vida

• C

This isn't exact by any means, but hopefully it will be helpful to anyone who is a 
fan of Penn Masala! 

   C      D     G     Em

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

C-D-G-Em (x4)

          C        D
I used to roll the dice
         G                  Em
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
              C           D
Listen as the crowd would sing
         G                 Em
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"


             C        D
One minute I held the key
         G          Em
Next the walls were closed on me
                         C       D
And I discovered that my castles stand
     G                   Em
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand


  C              D
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
G             Em
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
C                D
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
   G                 Em
My missionaries in a foreign field
C                 D
For some reason I can't explain
G                     Em
Once you go there was never
         C      D
Never an honest word
             G                EM
And that was when I ruled the world


C                 D
Kehne Ko Jashan-E-Bahara Hai
G               Em
Ishq Yeh Dekhke Hairaan Hai(X2)

 C                  D             G         Em
Phool Se Khusboo Khafa Khafa Hai Gulsan Mein
C              D            G          Em
Chupa Hai Koi Ranj Fiza Ki Chilman Mein

     D              Em
Sare Sehmein Nazare Hain
          D             Em
Soye Soye Vaqt Ke Dhare Hain
   C         D   Em               D
Aur Dil Mein Koi Khoyi Si Baatein Hain

C                 D
Kehne Ko Jashan-E-Bahara Hai
G               Em
Ishq Yeh Dekhke Hairaan Hai (X2)

 C                D               G          Em
Phool Se Khusboo Khafa Khafa Hai Gulsan Mein
C             D            G           Em
Chupa Hai Koi Ranj Fiza Ki Chilman Mein



Chorus
C                D
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
G             Em
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
C                D
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
G                    Em
My missionaries in a foreign field
C                 D
For some reason I can't explain
G                        Em
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
          C      D
Never an honest word
             G                Em
But that was when I ruled the world(play tab on 2nd time only)


Obviously listen to the way they perform the song to get the likeness of it. At 
the end it comes in and out a couple times with the final chorus, just repeat the 
same chords in those spaces. ENJOY! :)
