Chris Martin
Viva la Vida (Live in Buenos Aires)
[Intro]
Let's go!
Cantar con nosotros, let's go
Oh whoa, oh whoa
Oh whoa, oh whoa

[Verse 1]
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 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, pillars of sand

[Chorus]
I hear Jerusalem bells a-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'd gone, there was never
Never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world
[Verse 2]
It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
And people couldn't believe what I'd become
Revolutionaries wait for my head on a silver plate
I'm just a puppet on a lonely string
Whoa, for who would ever want to be king?

[Chorus]
I hear Jerusalem bells a-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
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world

[Bridge]
Turn the lights off in the stadium
Ahora vamos a cantar juntos
Más fuerte que nunca, go!
Oh whoa, oh whoa
Oh whoa, oh whoa
Oh whoa
[Chorus]
Oh, I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing (Oh whoa)
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing (Oh whoa)
Be my mirror, my sword and shield (Oh whoa)
My missionaries in a foreign field (Oh whoa)
For some reason, I can't explain (Oh whoa)
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world

[Outro]
World, world, world, world, world, world
When I ruled the world, world, world, world
World, world, world, world
