Intro ( x2 ): F - G - C - Am ( Am ) F G I used to rule the world C Am Seas would rise when I gave the word F G Now in the morning I sleep alone C Am Sweep the streets I used to own F - G - C - Am x2 ( Am ) F G I used to roll the dice C Am Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes F G Listen as the crowd would sing: C Am "Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!" ( Am ) F G One minute I held the key C Am Next the walls were closed on me F G And I discovered that my castles stand C Am Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand F G I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing C Am Roman Cavalry choirs are singing F G Be my mirror, my sword, and shield C Am My missionaries in a foreign field F G For some reason I can't explain C Am F G Once you go there was never, never an honest word Bm Am That was when I ruled the world F - G - C - Am x2 ( Am ) F G It was the wicked and wild wind C Am Blew down the doors to let me in. F G Shattered windows and the sound of drums C Am People couldn't believe what I'd become ( Am ) F G Revolutionaries wait C Am For my head on a silver plate F G Just a puppet on a lonely string C Am Oh who would ever want to be king?

5 ukulele chords used in "Viva La Vida" by Coldplay: Am, Bm, C, F and G
I request the Minecraft lyrics.
I use C (like in the beginning of the chorus and in the verses). I have played it with Bm and it just sounds weird to me.
For strumming, I went DDDU DDDUD
-4 for original key
I’d suggest changing the Bm to an Em in the original key
strumming pattern
think of two chords as one strumming pattern
first chord – DDDD switch to next chord – UUUDU
repeat for the rest of the song
I just use DDUUUD this is very easy
I literally just spent like 20 minutes trying to write out the strumming pattern and then I read the green box underneath. ??
when I watched the video up top am i the only one who sang “Interlude”??
Praise be to The Lord on high, I just love this song so much!
I played this song for my class talent show and I forgot my ukulele and the words to the second verse……… typical me!
Love it
I found that using chords C – D – G – Em sound better :):)
DD DUD U UDU UDU

DDU UDU
I use DDU-UDU
D-D U-U-D
Perhaps instead of Bm ->Am, try Em -> Am. I think it fits the key better.
on the part “I know Saint Peter will call my name¨ is not will, is won’t : )
What a banger
