Chorus:
    D            D+ (xx0332)   Em           Ddim    (Ddim: xx0131)
I built a little empire out of some crazy garbage
             D              G               A       Bm
called the blood of the exploited working class     But
            G                                     Gm                
    they've overcome their shyness.  now they're calling me 'your Highness'
        D      Bm      G       A      D   A ( B7 every other time )
and a world screams: Kiss me, Son of God

Verse : ( Same as Chorus )
I destroyed the bond of friendship and respect
between the only people left who'd even look me in the eye
now I laugh and make a fortune off the same ones that I tortured
and a world screams: Kiss me, Son of God

Bridge:
            Em   A(+m9)     D     (A+m9: 002320)
I look like Jesus, so they say
       Em      A(+m9)      D   
but Mr Jesus is very far away
               F#                     Bm                 
now you're the only one here who can tell me if it's true
      G                     A
that you love me and I love me

Chorus:
I built a little empire out of some crazy garbage
called the blood of the exploited working class
but they've overcome their shyness. now they're calling me 'your Highness'
and a world screams: Kiss me, Son of God   
yes the world screams: Kiss me, Son of God

I took the chords by Bijhan Al-Attack and used them as a base. Some were missing, 
others did not contain the root, or were missing a modifier. This is the version 
off of Lincoln. ~ Drew Petersen* 09.21.2005
