Intro: G Dadd4/F# Em7 D Cmaj9 (x2 times)
G Em7 Cmaj9 G
There's a blood red circle on the cold dark ground
G Dadd4/F# Em7 D Cmaj9
And the rain is falling down
G Em7 Cmaj9 G
The church doors thrown open I can hear the organ's song
G Dadd4/F# Em7 D Cmaj9
But the congregation's gone
G Em7 Cmaj9 G
My city of ruins
G Em7 Cmaj9 G
My city of ruins
G Em7 Cmaj9 G
Now the sweet veils of mercy drift through the evening trees
G Dadd4/F# Em7 D Cmaj9
Young men on the corner like scattered leaves
G Em7 Cmaj9 G
The boarded up windows, the empty streets
G Dadd4/F# Em7 D Cmaj9
While my brother's down on his knees
G Em7 Cmaj9 G
My city of ruins
G Em7 Cmaj9 G
My city of ruins
Cmaj9 D G
Come on rise up! Come on rise up!
Cmaj9 D G
Come on rise up! Come on rise up!
Cmaj9 D G
Come on rise up! Come on rise up!
G Dadd4/F# Em7 D Cmaj9
Come on ri................se up
G Em7 Cmaj9 G
G Dadd4/F# Em7 D Cmaj9
G Em7 Cmaj9 G
Now there's tears on the pillow darling where we slept
G Dadd4/F# Em7 D Cmaj9
And you took my heart when you left
G Em7 Cmaj9 G
Without your sweet kiss my soul is lost, my friend
G Dadd4/F# Em7 D Cmaj9
Now tell me how do I begin again?
G Em7 Cmaj9 G
My city's in ruins
G Em7 Cmaj9 G
My city's in ruins
G Em7 Cmaj9 G
Now with these hands, with these hands
With these hands, with these hands
(I pray Lord)
With these hands, with these hands
(I pray for the strength Lord)
With these hands, with these hands
(I pray for the faith Lord)
With these hands, with these hands
(I pray for Your love Lord)
With these hands, with these hands
(I pray for the strength Lord)
With these hands, with these hands
(I pray for Your love Lord)
With these hands, with these hands
(I pray for the faith Lord)
With these hands, with these hands
(I pray for the strength Lord)
With these hands, with these hands
(Come on! Come on!)
Cmaj9 D G
Come on rise up! Come on rise up!
Come on rise up! Come on rise up!
Come on rise up! Come on rise up!
Come on rise up! Come on rise up!
Come on rise up! Come on rise up!
G Dadd4/F# Em7 D Cmaj9
Come on ri................se up
