Be

That was
C#m
when
I ruled the
F#m
world
D - E - A - F
I
F#m
t
was the wicked and
D
wild
E
wind
Blew down the
A
doors
to let me
F#m
in.
Shattered windows and the
D
sound
of
E
drums
People

couldn't
believe what
F#m
I'd
become
R
F#m
evolutio
D
naries

wait
For my h
A
ead
on a silver
F#m

Just a puppet on a

would ever want to be
F#m
