Viva La Vida - Coldplay | Piano Cover + Sheet Music

I recorded this piano cover in a couple of hours, so it's more like an improvisation!

This song is available on:

I'm watching in 2019, and this cover has aged beautifully over time

That bassline in the chorus is what I live for

[dansch]

I used to rule the world
Chunks would load when I gave the word
Now every night I go stow away
Hide from the mobs I used to slay
They once were terrified
Every time I looked into their eyes
Villagers would cheer my way
For a hero I was, that's what they'd say
One minute we had it all
Next our world began to fall
Away from all that it had once become
They all cried for my help, but I stood there numb
I gaze off into the boundless skyline
Noteblock choirs playing in the sunshine
Turn 'round pick up my sword and wield
The blade that once forced evil mobs to yield
And hope one day that this chaos and
Destruction turns for the better
Never a bow in hand
That was when I ruled the land
It was the creepers and Skeletons
Blew down the doors and boxed us in
Arrows whizzing by like streaks of light
I tried all that I could to stay and fight
As the undead roamed the street
Families broken at my feet
Life itself suspended by a thread
Oh, why is it that I wasn't dead
I gaze off into the boundless skyline
Noteblock choirs playing in the sunshine
Turn 'round pick up my sword and wield
The blade that once forced evil mobs to yield
If this battle should leave me slain
I know that Herobrine will call my name
Better to take a stand
That was when I ruled the land
I gaze off into the boundless skyline
Noteblock choirs playing in the sunshine
Turn 'round pick up my sword and wield
The blade that once forced evil mobs to yield
If this battle should leave me slain
I know that Herobrine will call my name
Better to take a stand
That was when I ruled the land

Hello Francesco, a lot of time has passed since this recording. I have just heard an excerpt from your candlelight performance in Verona today. Your skills as a pianist and arranger have progressed so much that a new recording of this piece would be an extremely valuable addition to your video collection. I have the greatest respect for your talent!
All the best for you, Jürgen

[igorramos]

I'm learning piano because of you;

[SleepingWanagi]

Wow after four year's people are still commenting, You are the best Francesco T.T

[annalaurarossetto]

Hello sir, it has been 8 years since you uploaded this and I just found it! I have been playing the piano for 7 years, and I really want to try this song. Thank you so much for you inspiration. It was beautiful!

[spicyfries]

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

I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listened as the crowd would sing,
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
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

I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing
Roman cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Once you'd gone there was never
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world

It was a 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
Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?

[joaquinampil]

Teach Me.




7 years after and this is still so good.

[thequietkid]

I watching in 2020 for the thousandth time and it never ages nor is there any other cover like it.

[SanSmith]

It goes from 'amazing' to 'out of this world' world as soon as the "I hear Jerusalem bells" part comes in. Absolutely incredible. Kudos.

[sharonah]

I hear Jerusalems Bells are ringing
Roman calvary Choirs are singing...❤

[darrellsmith]

Here you go again crushing it. Great performance!!
