Verse 1
(G major)
I have a (D major) heart full of (G major) questions
(D major) Quieting all my suggestion (E minor) s
What is the (G major) meaning of (C major) Christian
In this Amer (D major) ican life?
(G major) I’m feeling (D major) awfully (G major) foolish
(D major) Spending my life on a mes (E minor) sage
I (D major) look around (C major) and I wonder
Ever if I (D major) heard it right
(G major) Coming (C major) to you
(G major) ‘cause I’m confused
Coming to you (E minor) ‘cause I feel (G major) used
Coming to (C major) weep while (G major) I’m waiting
Tell me you (C major) won’t make me go
(G major) I need to (E minor) know there is (B minor) justice
(C major) That it will roll in abund (G major) ance
And that (C major) you’re building a (G major) city
Where we arrive as immig (D major) rants
And you call (E minor) us cit (G major) izens
And (C major) you welcome us as (D major) children (G major) home
You (D major) were alone and re (G major) jected
Misun (D major) derstood and detested (E minor)
You gave (D major) it all, (C major) didn’t hold back
You even gave (D major) up your life
(G major) How (D major) can we call ourselves (G major) Christians
Saying (D major) that love is a (E minor) tension
Between the (D major) call of the cross (C major) and
Between the (D major) old party line (G major)
Coming to you (C major) for the (G major) mothers
Who are all (E minor) running for cover (D major)
There is a (C major) flood from their (G major) weeping
Tell me you (C major) won’t make (G major) them go
I need to (E minor) know there is (D major) justice
That it will (C major) roll in abundance (G major)
And that you’re building (C major) a (G major) city
Where we arrive as immig (D major) rants
(G major) And you (E minor) call us citizens
(G major) And you (C major) welcome us as (D major) children (G major) home
(D major) (G major)
(D major) (E minor) (G major) (C major)
(D major) (G major)
There is a (D major) man with a (G major) family
He has a (D major) wife and a (E minor) baby
He broke the (B minor) law (G major) just to save (C major) them
Working for (D major) three bucks (G major) an hour
Truly you (D major) said we were (G major) equal
Every (D major) one’s heart is de (E minor) ceitful
Everyone (D major) born is il (C major) legal
When love is the (D major) law of the (G major) land
Coming to you (C major) for the hungry (G major)
Eating the scraps (E minor) of (D major) this country
(C major) Didn’t you swear you would (G major) feed them
Tell me (C major) you won’t make (G major) them go
(E minor) I need to know there is justice
(D major) That it will (C major) roll in (G major) abundance
(C major) And that you’re building a city
(G major) Where we arrive as immig (D major) rants
And you (E minor) call us cit (G major) izens
And you (C major) welcome us (D major) as
children (G major) home
(D major) There is a wolf who is ranting
(G major) All of the (D major) sheep they
are (E minor) clapping
Promising power (C major) and protection
Claiming the (D major) Christ who was (G major) killed
(D major) Killed by a common consensus
(G major) Everyone (D major) screaming
(E minor) “Barabbas”
Trading their God (C major) for a hero
Forfeiting (D major) Heaven for (G major) Rome
(C major) Coming to you ‘cause I’m angry
(G major) Coming to (E minor) you (D major) ‘cause I’m guilty
Coming to you (C major) ‘cause you’ve
(G major) promised
To leave (C major) the flock for (G major) the one
(E minor) I need to know there is justice
(D major) That it will (C major) roll in (G major) abundance
(C major) And that you’re building a city
(G major) Where we arrive as im (D major) migrants
And you (E minor) call us cit (G major) izens
And you (C major) welcome us (D major) as children (E minor) home
(C major) Where we (G major) ar rive as immig (D major) rants
And you (E minor) call us cit (G major) izens
And you (C major) welcome (D major) us as children (G major) home
(D major) Is there a way to love (G major) always?
(D major) Living in enemy hall (E minor) ways
Don’t know my (D major) foes from
my (C major) friends and
(D major) Don’t know my friends anymore
Power has several prizes
(G major) Handcuffs can (D major) come in all (E minor) sizes
Love has a (B minor) million dis (C major) guises
But winning (D major) is simply not one
