Sometimes a man can't see
               F#m
When he has it all

Take a look at me
                 E
Oh how he mighty fall
                 E
Once I ruled the earth

Oh the changes
I'd make if
I had the power
How could
I have so much
And be so blind
But at least for
A bright and
Shining moment
I had you, and
The world was mine


Chorus
                E
Sometimes a man can't see
               F#m
When he has it all
               A
Take a look at me
                 E
Oh how he mighty fall
                 E
Once I ruled the earth
           F#m
Once upon a time
                A
When I had your love
B                 E7
When the world was mine

Once I ruled the earth
Once upon a time
When I had your love
That's when
The world was mine
When I had your love
That's when
The world was mine

That's it..I didn't tab the last solos...cause I think you should improvise on your own
