Verse 1:
D#m D*
Did you hear of the city on the hill?
E G#m7
Said one old man to the other
D#m D*
It once shined bright and it would be shining still
E G#m7
But they all started turning on each other
Verse 2:
D#m D*
You see, the poets thought the dancers were shallow
E G#m7
And the soldiers thought the poets were weak
D#m D*
And the elders saw the young ones as foolish
E G#m7
And the rich man never heard the poor man speak
Chorus:
B
And one by one
F#
They ran away
E
With their made up minds
G#m7
To leave it all behind
B F#
And the light began to fade
E
In the city on the hill
E
The city on the hill
Verse 3:
D#m D*
Each one thought that they knew better
E G#m7
That they were different by design
D#m D*
Instead of standing strong together
E G#m7
They let their differences divide
Chorus:
B
And one by one
F#
They ran away
E
With their made up minds
G#m7
To leave it all behind
B F#
And the light began to fade
E
In the city on the hill
E
The city on the hill
Passage:
D#m D* E G#m7
And the world is searching still
D#m D* E
Bridge:
B
But it was the rhythm of the dancers
That gave the poets life
F#
It was the spirit of the poets
E
That gave the soldiers strength to fight
B
It was the fire of the young ones
D#m
It was the wisdom of the old
E
It was the story of the poor man
That needed to be told
Ending:
D#m D* E
Come home
G#m7
And the Father's calling still
D#m D* E
Come home
G#m7
To the city on the hill
D#m D* E
Come home
