1 VERSE:
       Dm                      F
Did you hear of the city on the hill?
    C                 Bb
Said one old man to the other
              Dm                             F
It once shined bright and it would be shining still
        C                           Bb            Dm F C
But they all started turning on each other         
 
2 VERSE:
           Dm                             F
You see the poets thought the dancers were shallow
       C                               Bb
And the soldiers thought the poets were weak
       Dm                           F
And the elders saw the young ones as foolish
       C                        Bb
And the rich man never heard the poor man speak
 
CHORUS:
          Bb           F
And one by one they ran away
          C                         Gm
With their made up minds to leave it all behind
       Bb             F                     C
And the light began to fade in the city on a hill
             Dm    F C Bb
The city on a hill
 
3 VERSE:
        Dm                     F
Each one thought that they knew better
              C            Bb
But there were different by design
          Dm                F
Instead of standing strong together
              C             Bb
They let their differences divide
 
CHORUS:
          Bb            F
And one by one they ran away
          C                         Gm
With their made up minds to leave it all behind
       Bb             F                     C
And the light began to fade in the city on a hill
            Dm    F C
The city on a hill
       Gm                 Dm    F C
And the world is searchin' still
 
BRIDGE:
              Bb
But it was the rhythm of the dancers that gave the poets life
          F                                 C
It was the spirit of the poets that gave the soldiers strength to fight
         Bb                                 Dm
It was the fire of the young ones, it was the wisdom of the old
          C                                          Dm F C Bb Dm F C
It was the story of the poor man that needed be told
 
2 BRIDGE:
            Bb
It is the rhythm of the dancers that gives the poets life
            F                                 C
It is the spirit of the poets that gives the soldiers strength to fight
           Bb                               Dm
It is the fire of the young ones, it is the wisdom of the old
            C                                         Dm F C Bb Dm F C
It is the story of the poor man that's needing to be told
 
CHORUS:
            Bb              F
But one by one, will we run away?
        C                         Gm
With our made up minds to leave it all behind
      Bb              F                     C
As the light begins to fade in the city on a hill?
             Dm    F
The city on a hill
 
    C                Bb               Dm     F
Come home         And the Father's calling still
    C                Bb          Dm    F
Come home          To the city on the hill
    C
Come home
