Verse 1
Em
A
Em
Oh Jerusalem yeah, oh Jerusalem,
A
Em
A
Em
oh Jerusalem, oh Jer usalem...
A
Verse 2
Em
A
Realizing that there's no place
Em
else to go
And there's nobody I know
A
Em
who can help me
A
Text book solutions are so
Em
improbable
'cause everybody else
A
Em
is just as empty
A
Naked as the day that I was born,
I tried to hide
Em
...behind education and
A
Em
philosophy
Hopeless explanation to
A
describe a situation
Em
I can't see because the
A
Em
world's on top of me
A
Oh wretched man that I am,
Em
who will deliver me
A
Em
From the body of this death
Freeing me from dust,
A
and the superficial trust
Em
Of an enemy that seeks
A
Dm
to take my breath
Failing to connect,
Em
Am
'cause I'm morally defect
Dm
By reason of the God inside my head
Causing me to see,
Em
Am
only what pertains to me
Believing I'm alive when
Dm
Em
I'm still dead
Limited to earth,
A
unable to find out my worth
Em
'cause I... can't see past
A
Em
my own vanity
If I'm not included,
A
then I just have to remove it
Em
From my mind because it has to be in sanity
A
Em
A
Oh wretched man that I am,
Em
who will deliver me
A
Em
From the body of this death
Can I even factor,
A
that I've only been an actor
Em
A
In this staged interpretation of this day
Em
Focused on the shadow,
A
with my back turned to the light
Em
Too intelligent to see it's me
A
Dm
in the way
What a paradox,
Em
Am
having God trapped in a box
Dm
All this time professing to be spiritual
Naturally pretending,
Em
Am
that I'm actually defending
Dm
A
God (?) don't need material
G#m
Oh Jerusalem, wash
Verse 3
F#m
thy heart from wickedness
A
G#m
F#m
That thou may be saved
A
from thy deception
G#m
F#m
How long, shall thy face
those lies within thee
A
Oh Jerusalem,
G#m
F#m
keeping thee from perfection
Verse 4
Em
Submit to truth,
A
leave the deception of thy youth
Em
So we could walk in
A
the council of authority
Em
Forget the proof,
A
Em
our generation so aloof
Only follow in the steps
A
Dm
of the majority
Em
Trust in the Lord, with all thy heart
And lay not to thine,
Am
Dm
oh an understanding in all thy ways
Acknowledge Him,
Em
Am
and He shall correct our paths
Dm
Be (?) you can follow him
Em
We judge and condemn,
A
just as ignorant as them
Em
Who religion tells us that we should
A
Em
ignore
A
Perpetrating we're in covenant with Him
Em
Exposed by the very
A
things that we adore
Em
We grin and shake hands,
A
then lay ambush for the man
Em
Who has a different point of
A
Em
view then us
A
Infuriated 'cause he doesn't understand
Em
Bringing up those things we
A
don't want to discuss
Em
Why still do evil,
A
Em
we don't know how to do good
A
Walking on in darkness running from the light,
Em
ey
Led to believe,
A
because we live in neighborhoods
Em
Telling us what's going on will be alright
A
Dm
Oh so repressed,
Em
Am
so convinced that I was blessed
When I played with my
Dm
game of Monopoly
Em
Oh to suggest, that my life is still a mess
Am
Em
Who reveal the pride I'm hiding
Dm
A
is what's stopping me
G#m
F#m
Oh Jerusalem, wash
Verse 5
A
thy heart from wickedness
G#m
F#m
That thou may be saved
A
from thy deception
G#m
F#m
How long, shall thy face
those lies within thee
A
G#m
Oh Jerusalem keeping
F#m
Em
them from perfection
Verse 6
A
Abide in me and I in you,
Em
as the branch cannot bare
A
...fruit of itself except in the vine
Em
A
I am the vine, ye are the branches,
He's in live in me
Em
And I in him, the same bring
A
Dm
forth much fruit
Em
Without me, you can do nothing
Oh Jerusalem,
Am
Em
Dm
you're traditions have deceived you
Em
I've chosen you, you haven't chosen me
Do whatsoever,
Am
Em
Dm
you asking my name he may give to you
Em
But in vain they call my name
A
Em
teaching doctrines just the same
A
Justified among themselves
Em
But God know with the heart,
A
Em
what man esteemed as smart
Is an abomination to Emmanuel
A
Dm
Just repent,
Em
Am
turn from selfish motivation
Dm
So iniquity will not cause your demise
Make you a new heart
Em
and a new spirit
Am
...for why would he die
Dm
Em
Oh Jerusalem, please tell me why
I have no pleasure in
A
the death of him to die
Em
Says the Lord God where forth turn
A
Em
yourselves and live
It's not the talkers,
A
A
but the walkers and his word
Em
A
Are the only ones the Father will forgive
Verse 7

How long, shall thy face
those lies within thee

Oh Jerusalem, providing you no protection

Well-Designed App
Rose the Black Cat
“I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.”
Got me back into playing
Tuliketsune
“I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂”
Secret weapon
Brad
“Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!”
Very reliable tuner

This is the best guitar tuner ever.
Caleb Schafli
“It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.”
Great to tune and play
