Dm
I woke up today
F                             Dm
Expecting to find all that I sought
              Bb                Gm
And climb the mountains of the life I bought
Dm                   F
Finally I'm at the top of every hierarchy
Dm        Bb           Gm
Unfortunately there is no one left
    Dm
But me

Dm

Dm
I woke up today
      F                                      Dm
To a world that's ground to dust, dirt and stone
          Bb              Gm
I'm the king upon this withering throne
Dm                     F
I ruled every forest, every mountain, every sea
      Dm          Bb              Gm     F
Now there're but ruins left to rule for me
          Eb       Cm         Gm
And... you see, it beckons me;

Life turned its back on us
How could you just agree?
...how? I just don't see...

Dm
I woke up today
      F                             Dm
To a world devoid of forests and trees
             Bb          Gm
Drained of every ocean, every sea
          Dm                         F
Just like a useless brick upon the shore
                       Dm
The morning after the storm
              Bb
That swept the bridge away
  Gm          F
Relentless tide
  Eb   Cm
No anger
            D          Eb
Just this relentless time
      F        Eb
That calls us all on
But...

C5            Eb          Gm
I'm never crossing that line
        D5          C5
Leaving this world behind
        Eb         Gm
I will stay on my own
        D5
On this bloodstained throne
C5           Eb        Gm
I rule the ruins and wrecks
D5                      C5
And the dust, dirt and stone
Eb       Gm                      D5
I rule rage rod and rattling of bones

(Bbm Bbm9 F# Ebm Db Ab/C) - solo

Bbm
I am on my own
Bbm9
I am all alone
F#
Everything is gone
Edm
Stuck forever here
 Dd Ab/C
Already cold

(Bb5  C#5   F5  C5)
I'm never crossing that line
Leaving this world behind
I will stay on my own
On this bloodstained throne...

C5          Eb5         G5
I'm never crossing that line
         D5          C5
Leaving this world behind
       Eb5       G5
I will stay on my own
         D5
On this bloodstained throne
C5          Eb5        G5
I rule the ruins and wrecks
        D5            F5           A5
And the dirt and the dust and the stone
           E5      D5         F5
I'm the ruler of rage rod and rust
         A5         (E5 G5 A5 B5)
And the rattling of bones

Ruler of ruin...
