I set out to rule the world
         Em      C         G                     C
With only a paper shield and a wooden
sword
      Em            C       G                 C
No mountain dare stand in my way
Em           G                 C
Even the oceans tremble in my wake
         Em             C         G          F
The tide is brave, but always retreats
          Em         C           G
Even the sand, it cowers under my feet
        Em          G          C            Em
My kingdom towers above it all
                G       C
While I sleep safe and sound in my
F
cardboard walls
            Am      Em
Now I bear little resemblance to the
G         C
king I once was
Am      Em       G                            C
I bear little resemblance to the king I
G
could become
Am      Em       F           G
Maybe paper is paper, maybe kids will
      C
be kids
Am      Em       Dm          C
Lord, I want to remember how to
G
feel like I did
       Em           C                         G
So I draw my sword with the morning sun
   Em         G       Dm         C
I summon the moon as soon as the day
      F
is done
        Em       C           G
The clouds march on, on my command
          F              Em
Even the rain, it falls according to plan
     C        G         C
The trees bow down and give their
G
leaves
   Em      C           Dm           G
I humbly accept their offerings of peace
     Am        F           Am
The years wore on and changed my heart
Am                      F
The leading role for a smaller part
             Am      Em
Now I bear little resemblance to the
G       C
king I once was
Am      Em       G                            C
I bear little resemblance to the king I
G
could become
Am   Em          F           G
Maybe paper is paper, maybe kids will
      C
be kids
     Am      Em      Dm          C
But Lord, I want to remember how to
G
feel like I did
       Am       Em       G
'Cause I bear little resemblance to the
C
king I once was
Am      Em     G                               C
I bear little resemblance to the king I
G
could become
Am        Em          F          G
Maybe paper is paper, maybe kids will
      C
be kids
    Am       Em       Dm       C
But Lord, I want to remember how to
G
feel like I did
Em           C           G
I set out to rule the world
             Em                 Dm
With only a paper shield and a wooden

sword
