But they all started turning on each other

And the rich man never heard the poor man speak
Chorus:

And one by one
D#
They ran away

With their made up minds

To leave it all behind
G# D#
And the light began to fade

In the city on the hill
C#
The city on the hill

The city on the hill
Passage:
Cm D* C# Fm7
And the world is searching still
Cm D* C#
Bridge:

But it was the rhythm of the dancers
That gave the poets life

It was the spirit of the poets

It was the fire of the young ones

It was the wisdom of the old

It was the story of the poor man
That needed to be told

Come home
Fm7
And the Father's calling still
Cm D* C#
Come home
Fm7
To the city on the hill

Come home
