Verse 1:
Em D*
Did you hear of the city on the hill?
F Am7
Said one old man to the other
Em D*
It once shined bright and it would be shining still
F Am7
But they all started turning on each other
Verse 2:
Em D*
You see, the poets thought the dancers were shallow
F Am7
And the soldiers thought the poets were weak
Em D*
And the elders saw the young ones as foolish
F Am7
And the rich man never heard the poor man speak
Chorus:
C
And one by one
G
They ran away
F
With their made up minds
Am7
To leave it all behind
C G
And the light began to fade
F
In the city on the hill
F
The city on the hill
Verse 3:
Em D*
Each one thought that they knew better
F Am7
That they were different by design
Em D*
Instead of standing strong together
F Am7
They let their differences divide
Chorus:
C
And one by one
G
They ran away
F
With their made up minds
Am7
To leave it all behind
C G
And the light began to fade
F
In the city on the hill
F
The city on the hill
Passage:
Em D* F Am7
And the world is searching still
Em D* F
Bridge:
C
But it was the rhythm of the dancers
That gave the poets life
G
It was the spirit of the poets
F
That gave the soldiers strength to fight
C
It was the fire of the young ones
Em
It was the wisdom of the old
F
It was the story of the poor man
That needed to be told
Ending:
Em D* F
Come home
Am7
And the Father's calling still
Em D* F
Come home
Am7
To the city on the hill
Em D* F
Come home
