[Intro]
F              Dm
If I ruled the world
Am                            
If I ruled the world, ruled the 
         G
world, ruled the world


[Verse 1]
            F                    
I'd give the power to the people, 
    Dm
everybody would be equal
          Am                       
Fight Club would have a sequel and 
   G
my rent would be much cheaper
      F                            
Jenny wouldn't hate her figure when
       Dm
 she's small or when she's bigger
         Am                        
She'd be kissin' on the mirror and 
    G
the wifi would be quicker
     F                         Dm
Everybody would recycle, fewer cars 
and more bicycles
        Am                         
No more fighting for survival, you 
      G
would hear this song on vinyl


[Chorus]
F              Dm
If I ruled the world
   Am                          
If I ruled the world, ruled the 
        G
world, ruled the world
F              Dm
If I ruled the world
   Am                          
If I ruled the world, ruled the 
        G
world, ruled the world

[Verse 2]
            F
You'd see a doctor if you're sick
      Dm
Mary, don't you worry 'bout it
               Am
'Cause there'd be no crazy bill
        G
No more thousand-dollar pills
              F
And age would be a source of pride
           Dm
You've got beautiful laugh lines
        Am
Nine-to-five includes your nap time
            G
And there'd be TED Talks at halftime
        F                          
All the sexist, racist bandits 
     Dm
would be sent off for rehabbin'
      Am                           
And instead of feeding fear, we'd 
  G
be feeding half the planet, damnit


[Chorus]
F              Dm
If I ruled the world
   Am                          
If I ruled the world, ruled the 
        G
world, ruled the world
F              Dm
If I ruled the world
   Am                          
If I ruled the world, ruled the 
        G
world, ruled the world


[Bridge]
     Dm
If I ruled
         Em                    
It would be less about me, more 
       F
about you
            G
(More about you)
     Dm
If I ruled
         Em                    
It would be less about me, more 
       F
about you
           G
More about you


[Verse 3]
        F
We'd be kind to refugees, plant more
 trees in inner cities
         Am                        
We'd bus kids to see the ocean, 
       G
some kids never see the ocean
         F
I'd make news more beneficial, I'd 
make every driver signal
     Am                         G
Only love is my objective, only love
 is my perspective
         F                       
I'd keep music in the schools and 
      Dm
hear every point of view
     Am                            
N.C.
If I ruled, it would be less about 
me, more about you
