Capo 1

[Intro]
    x3

[Verse 1]
           
I used to rule

     
 the world
             
Chunks would l

              
oad when I gav

      
e the word
              
Now every nigh

            
t I go stow aw

ay
              
Hide from the 

             
mobs I used to

 
 slay

[Interlude]
    x2

[Verse 2]
            
They once were

     
 terrified
             
Every time I l

              
ooked into the

   
ir eyes
              
Villagers woul

          
d cheer my way
             
For a hero I w

           
as, that's wha

t they'd say
              
One minute we 

      
had it all
             
Next our world

          
 began to fall
              
Away from all 

             
that it had on

     
ce become
             
They all cried

              
 for my help, 

      
but I stood th

ere numb

[Chorus]
             
I gaze off int

      
o the boundles

s skyline
             
Note block cho

 the sunshine
             
Turn around, p

          
ick up my swor

d and wield
             
The blade that

              
 once forced e

    
vil mobs to yi

eld
             
And hope one d

haos and
             
Destruction tu

            
rns for the be

tter
             
Never a bow in

 
 hand
            
That was when 

            
I ruled the la

nd

[Interlude]
    x2

[Verse 3]
            
It was the cre

              
epers and the 

    
skeletons
              
Blew down the 

             
doors and boxe

     
d us in
              
Arrows whizzin

             
g by like stre

       
aks of light
             
I tried all th

              
at I could to 

  
stay and fight
              
As the undead 

          
roamed the str

eet
             
Families broke

        
n at my feet
              
Life itself su

            
spended by a t

hread
             
Oh, why was it

              
 that I wasn't

 
 dead?

[Chorus]
             
I gaze off int

The blade that

              
 once forced e

    
vil mobs to yi

If this battle

        
 should leave 

me slain
             
I know Herobri

        
ne will call m

y name
             
Better to take

   
 a stand
             
And that was w

             
hen I ruled th

  
e land
