G               G/B            Cadd9         Dsus4
 I feel the time,  the time has come
G                 G/B               Cadd9         Dsus4
 It's underneath my, underneath my thumb
Em7                        C
   Maybe I don't stand a chance
                  G             D
But then maybe I could
Em7                        C
   So with the devil I'll dance
              G             D
And knock on wood

  Em7       D/F#      Cadd9     Dsus4
If I could rule the world
       Em7      D/F#       Cadd9      Dsus4
What if I could rule the world

G                 G/B                 Cadd9             Dsus4
 I'd take the pain, take the pain from your heart
G                         G/B            Cadd9            Dsus4
 And I would tear it all up, I'd tear it apart
Em7                       C                    G             D
  I would drown out the cries with redemption songs
Em7                            C
  I'd part the truth from the lies
                        G             D
And the right from the wrong


       Em7       D/F#      Cadd9      Dsus4
Yeah, if I could rule the world
      Em7      D/F#       Cadd9      Dsus4
What if I could rule the world?

Em7           D/F#                     G       D/F#   
   I'd be the king with the commoner's crown
Em7              D/F#                           G
   You'd be the queen and let your heart reign down
D/F#            
Reign down, reign down

G                  G/B
  When the day is done
                 Cadd9       Dsus4
When the day has passed
G                  G/B
  And a new light shines
                 Cadd9       Dsus4
A new light will cast

Em7                    C
  Give a run for your worth
                       G         D
And play the cards at hand
Em7                      C
 Fight the troubles at birth
                    G
And know where you stand
     D     [Quiet]
And remember

       Em7      D/F#      Cadd9     D/F#
That if I could rule the world
        Em7      D/F#      Cadd9     D/F#
Yeah, if I could rule the world
[Full] Em7      D/F#      Cadd9     D/F#
 Oh, if I could rule the world
        Em7      D/F#      Cadd9     D
Yeah, if I could rule the world
           G      G/B
You'd be my queen
          Cadd9     Dsus4
You'd be my queen
                G        G/B      Cadd9     Dsus4
And we could be   free

G           G/B              Cadd9 ...
I feel the time, the time has come
