Verse 1:
Bm D*
Did you hear of the city on the hill?
C Em7
Said one old man to the other
Bm D*
It once shined bright and it would be shining still
C Em7
But they all started turning on each other
Verse 2:
Bm D*
You see, the poets thought the dancers were shallow
C Em7
And the soldiers thought the poets were weak
Bm D*
And the elders saw the young ones as foolish
C Em7
And the rich man never heard the poor man speak
Chorus:
G
And one by one
D
They ran away
C
With their made up minds
Em7
To leave it all behind
G D
And the light began to fade
C
In the city on the hill
C
The city on the hill
Verse 3:
Bm D*
Each one thought that they knew better
C Em7
That they were different by design
Bm D*
Instead of standing strong together
C Em7
They let their differences divide
Chorus:
G
And one by one
D
They ran away
C
With their made up minds
Em7
To leave it all behind
G D
And the light began to fade
C
In the city on the hill
C
The city on the hill
Passage:
Bm D* C Em7
And the world is searching still
Bm D* C
Bridge:
G
But it was the rhythm of the dancers
That gave the poets life
D
It was the spirit of the poets
C
That gave the soldiers strength to fight
G
It was the fire of the young ones
Bm
It was the wisdom of the old
C
It was the story of the poor man
That needed to be told
Ending:
Bm D* C
Come home
Em7
And the Father's calling still
Bm D* C
Come home
Em7
To the city on the hill
Bm D* C
Come home
