[Intro] Am G Am Am G Am F C G Am Am G Am [Verse 1]
    Am        G               Am
The tenure of kings and their magistrates

   Am          G         Am
By good men it must be deposed

    F        C           G         Am
The covenant made can be voided at once

    Am         G        Am
Disanoint him, take his crown

     Am              G             Am         G
They plead for their king and they pity their lord

Am         G                  Am G
Put him to death, that's what I  say

       F        C          G         Am
Though never so just these dancing divines

  Dm           C          G
Endue him with reason and grace

      F         C        G          Am
Their gibberish words dissemble the facts

      Dm        C            G
God's will they falsely will claim
[Chorus]
        Am    F  G
Let him curse my name

         Am            F        C   G
On these blood stained pages of misery

        Am        F/A       G/A   G
Let him call me a tyrant so cruel

        Am    F  C          G          Am
Let him curse my name but remember the truth
[Interlude] Am F G Am F C G Am F G Am F C G [Verse 2]
   Am                   Am
So there they come from everywhere

     Am                         G
They witness revenge, hear them calling

       Am                     Am
You're laden with blood, it's spilled everywhere

    Am           G
And sorrow's everlasting

F
Oh, you'll be aware now

E                                   F
  That trial is near, it's close at hand

                  E
The masquerade is over

   Am
It ends

Remove his crown and bring him down

  Am        C        G         D
Remove his crown and bring him down

    Am                 C           G                      D
Now we shall mourn now longer, our prayers they've been heard

    Am                 C           G                      D
Now we shall mourn now longer, our prayers they've been heard

                 Am                             C           G                   D
There's no more league that will bind us to the tyrant, our voices shall be heard

                 Am                             C           G                   D
There's no more league that will bind us to the tyrant, our voices shall be heard

Am                         C      G                          D
  And we're one we are the nation,  and we're one we are the law

Am                         C      G                          D
  And we're one we are the nation,  and we're one we are the law
[Verse 3]
F            C       G         Am
Falsely they praise, deify his majesty

     F         C            G             Am
He's blessed annointed's fulfilling God's will

F          C       F            C
Curse them all, no further he's king

   F               C            G        Am
Providence brought him straight into our hands
[Chorus]
        Am    F  G
Let him curse my name

         Am            F        C   G
On these blood stained pages of misery

Let him call me a tyrant so cruel

        Am    F  C          G          Am
Let him curse my name but remember the truth

    Am                      Am
Now let him appear, there's joy in the air

    Am                   G
Now witness a new age is dawning

   Am                  Am
In trouble alone, he's facing despair

 Am                 G
Awaiting his bitter ending

   F   C         G         Am         F          C          G
We all know he's guilty as charged by punishment due to his crime

   F    C        G      Am     F             C              G
We sacrifice the wicked king acknowledged by scriptures and law
[Chorus]

Let him curse my name

         Am            F        C   G
On these blood stained pages of misery

Let him call me a tyrant so cruel

        Am    F  C          G          Am
Let him curse my name but remember the truth

Am                        G
We won't take it anymore, our voice it shall be heard

We won't take it anymore, but I will remember the truth

We won't take it anymore, our voice it shall be heard

Am                        C            G          Am
We won't take it anymore, but I will remember the truth
