Verse 1:
F#m D*
Did you hear of the city on the hill?
G Bm7
Said one old man to the other
F#m D*
It once shined bright and it would be shining still
G Bm7
But they all started turning on each other
Verse 2:
F#m D*
You see, the poets thought the dancers were shallow
G Bm7
And the soldiers thought the poets were weak
F#m D*
And the elders saw the young ones as foolish
G Bm7
And the rich man never heard the poor man speak
Chorus:
D
And one by one
A
They ran away
G
With their made up minds
Bm7
To leave it all behind
D A
And the light began to fade
G
In the city on the hill
G
The city on the hill
Verse 3:
F#m D*
Each one thought that they knew better
G Bm7
That they were different by design
F#m D*
Instead of standing strong together
G Bm7
They let their differences divide
Chorus:
D
And one by one
A
They ran away
G
With their made up minds
Bm7
To leave it all behind
D A
And the light began to fade
G
In the city on the hill
G
The city on the hill
Passage:
F#m D* G Bm7
And the world is searching still
F#m D* G
Bridge:
D
But it was the rhythm of the dancers
That gave the poets life
A
It was the spirit of the poets
G
That gave the soldiers strength to fight
D
It was the fire of the young ones
F#m
It was the wisdom of the old
G
It was the story of the poor man
That needed to be told
Ending:
F#m D* G
Come home
Bm7
And the Father's calling still
F#m D* G
Come home
Bm7
To the city on the hill
F#m D* G
Come home
