Welcome to the nightmare

Where villains wear the crowns
D
 Fools rule a broken world
    A               E
And fear grows all around

Bm
 There's a bad king
D           E           F#m
 A dreadful puppet on a string

      F#m
He pretends to be a champion

Of the common man
D
 Wants more division
       A              E
In his lost and riven land

Bm
 He plays with real lives
D       E               F#m
 In the darkest game of life

Bridge:
           B
His greedy eyes
                                       F#m
Looks insane, frozen smile like he's in pain
           B
He doesn't count
                                      C#
The human cost but only money made or lost

Yeah

King for a day

 Lives like the world would end today
           F#m
King for a day
D            E                B
 What do you hide, Why do you lie?

             D
Who made the rules for this game
       E
Who is paying your champagne?
        D
All the mercy in the world
       E           C#
Cannot save you anymore
           F#m

F#m F#m E D     (x2)

Verse:
F#m
He knows how to justify

And how to feed the myths
D
 How to glorify
    A                 E
The lies and hide the truth

Bm
 He talks a lot but
D             E             F#m
 His mouth is full of empty words

F#m
 He has the right friends

Making shady inside deals
D
 Before the story ends
   A              E
We will be out of tears

Bm
 Fools give the answer
D         E          F#m
 Wise men don't even try

Bridge:
             B
The time has come

To dethrone him but there's a new clone
         F#m
Stepping in, yeah
          B
Just more scum
                                   C#
Another greedy, rotten puppet on a string

Yeah

Chorus:
           F#m
