Viva la Vida By: Coldplay Click the cover
Lyrics I used to rule the world Seas would rise when I gave the word Now in the morning I sleep alone Sweep the streets I used to own I used to roll the dice Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes Listened as the crowd would sing Now the old king is dead long live the king One minute I held the key Next the walls were closed on me And I discovered that my castles stand Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
Chorus I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing Roman cavalry choirs are singing Be my mirror, my sword and shield My missionaries in a foreign field For some reason I can't explain I know St. Peter won't call my name Never an honest word But that was when I ruled the world
Lyrics It was a wicked and wild wind Blew down the doors to let me in Shattered windows and the sound of drums People couldn't believe what I'd become Revolutionaries wait For my head on a silver plate Just a puppet on a lonely string Oh who would ever want to be king?

Coldplay is a band from London, England. Their music genre is alternative rock. Chris Martin is the lead singer and piano player of the band, Jon Buckland plays the lead guitar, Guy Berryman plays the bass, and Will Champion is on the drums. They met at the University College London (UCL) in 1996 in a residence hall. The first to join the band were Martin and Buckland. For the rest of that year, they planned the band. Later, Berryman decided to join and in 1998, so did Champion. He had played several instruments as he grew up, but never played the drums until then. After a huge success in England after their first album, they decided to come to the U. S. (Coldplay). back
