            -----------------------
Update on 5/19/08 - added no capo version
            -----------------------
These are all basic chords if you use a capo on the first fret.
if you dont have  a capo, C becomes C# , G becomes G#,
Em becomes Fm, D becomes D#, Bm becomes Cm.

Weird synthetizer/violin thingy arranged for guitar. Try to change between
normal and power chords when you feel like it, or it just will be too monotonous.

STANDARD TUNING - CAPO 1

INTRO: C - D - G - Em    x2

(Em)      C        D
I used to rule the world 
           G                    Em
Seas would rise when I gave the word 
                     C       D
Now in the morning I sleep alone 
          G                 Em
Sweep the streets I used to own

C - D - G - Em    x2

(Em)      C         D
I used to roll the dice 
          G                 Em
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes 
              C            D
Listen as the crowd would sing: 
          G                 Em
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"


(Em)         C        D
One minute I held the key 
         G                    Em
Next the walls were closed on me 
                          C        D
And I discovered that my castles stand 
     G                    Em
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand 

  C              D
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing 
G             Em
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing 
C                D
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield 
   G                 Em
My missionaries in a foreign field 
C                 D
For some reason I can't explain 
G                     Em              C      D
Once you go there was never, never an honest word
         Bm               Em 
That was when I ruled the world 

C - D - G - Em    x2

(Em)                  C     D
It was the wicked and wild wind 
              G               Em
Blew down the doors to let me in. 
                          C        D
Shattered windows and the sound of drums 
       G                    Em
People couldn't believe what I'd become

(Em)     C      D
Revolutionaries wait 
        G               Em
For my head on a silver plate 
                   C      D
Just a puppet on a lonely string
   G                         Em
Oh who would ever want to be king? 


  C              D
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing 
G             Em
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing 
C                D
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield 
   G                 Em
My missionaries in a foreign field 
C                 D
For some reason I can't explain 
  G                     Em              
I know Saint Peter will call my name ,
   C            D 
never an honest word
              Bm               Em 
But that was when I ruled the world  

C - Em x3
D x2


C - D - G - Em    x2
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)

  C              D
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing 
G             Em
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing 
C                D
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield 
   G                 Em
My missionaries in a foreign field 
C                 D
For some reason I can't explain 
  G                     Em              
I know Saint Peter will call my name ,
   C            D 
never an honest word
              Bm                Em 
But that was when I ruled the world  

C - D - Bm - Em              and fading...
Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh

Coldplay - Viva La Vida 



Viva La Vida 
生命万岁 

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 
大千世界曾由我主宰 
巨浪也曾因我之命澎湃 
而今我却在黎明独自入眠 
在曾属于我的大道落寞徘徊 

I used to roll the dice 
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes 
Listen as the crowd would sing: 
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!" 
凡人生死曾由我主宰 
尽情品味惊恐在死敌瞳孔绽开 
欣然倾听百姓高歌喝彩： 
“先王亡矣！新王万代！” 

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 
此刻我手握权位经脉 
转瞬才知宫墙深似海 
恍然发现我的城池 
基底散如盐沙乱似尘埃 

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing 
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing 
Be my mirror my sword and shield 
My missionaries in a foreign field 
听那耶路撒冷钟声传来 
罗马骑兵歌声震彻山海 
担当我的明镜，利剑和盾牌 
我的传教士屹立边疆之外 

For some reason I can't explain 
Once you go there was never, 
never an honest word 
That was when I ruled the world 
只因一些缘由我无法释怀 
一旦你离开这里便不再， 
不再有逆耳忠言存在 
而这便是我统治的时代 

It was the 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 
凛冽邪风呼啸袭来 
吹散重门使我深陷阴霾 
断壁残垣礼崩乐坏 
世人不敢相信我已当年不再 

Revolutionaries wait 
For my head on a silver plate 
Just a puppet on a lonely string 
Oh who would ever want to be king? 
起义大军翘首期待 
有朝一日我站上断头台 
恰如傀儡随吊线寂寞摇摆 
悲哉，谁又曾渴望万人膜拜？ 

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing 
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing 
Be my mirror my sword and shield 
My missionaries in a foreign field 
听那耶路撒冷钟声传来 
罗马骑兵歌声震彻山海 
担当我的明镜，利剑和盾牌 
我的传教士屹立边疆之外 

For some reason I can't explain 
I know Saint Peter won't call my name 
Never an honest word 
But that was when I ruled the world 
只因一些缘由我无法释怀 
我亦知天堂之门不会为我敞开 
不再有逆耳忠言存在 
但这却是我统治的时代 

翻译心得： 

《Viva La Vida》歌词如同旋律一般，铿锵有力，激情四射，但歌词的翻译过程却步履维艰。语句中随处可见的一些欧洲中世纪历史信息以及与基督教相关词语给翻译过程带来了很多困难，部分语句含义比较隐晦，只得在查阅一些资料后，才慢慢开始着手翻译工作。 
在最终大功告成后，回头再看，不由赞叹Coldplay作品的磅礴与大气：一国之君人前的无上荣耀与背后的落寞孤独，以及当权位摇摇欲倾时的哀叹，Oh who would ever want to be king，都使自己久久陷入沉思。歌词所影射的国王（根据资料可能为路易十六），以及中国历史中的李后主、明熹宗，在某些方面令世人赞叹，但却只落得“昏君”二字，念及此，谁又会愿意为王呢。 

王侯将相，不过凡人；生命不息，闪耀出生命最绚烂的色彩，足以不朽。 
Viva La Vida，生命万岁。
