Gtp chords: Jerusalem
Song lyrics:
Capo 1 Intro: Em C G D x2 Em In the ancient days, we will return with no delay C Picking up the bounty and the spoils on our way G We've been traveling from state to state D And them don't understand what they say Em 3,000 years with no place to be C And they want me to give up my milk and honey G Don't you see, it's not about the land or the sea D Not the country but the dwelling of his majesty Chorus: x2 Em Jerusalem, if I forget you, C Fire not gonna come from me tongue. G Jerusalem, if I forget you, D Let my right hand forget what it's supposed to Do Em Rebuild the temple and the crown of glory C Years gone by, about sixty G We were burned in the oven in this century D And the gas tried to choke, but it couldn't choke me Em I will not lie down, I will not fall asleep C So they come overseas, yes they're trying to be free G Erase the demons out of our memory D Change your name and your identity Em Afraid of the truth and our dark history C Why is everybody always chasing we G Cut off the roots of your family tree D Don't you know that's not the way to be Chorus Em Caught up in these ways, and the worlds gone craze G Don't you know it's just a phase, cause of the Simon says Bm If I forget the truth then my words won't penetrate F#m Babylon burning in the place, can't see through the haze Em Chop down all of them dirty ways, G That's the price that you pay for selling lies to the youth Bm No way, not ok, oh F#m No way, not ok, hey Em Aint no one gonna break my stride C G Aint no one gonna pull me down x2 D Oh no, I got to keep on moving Chorus x2 Em C Jerusalem If I forget You G D Jerusalem If I forget You Em C Jerusalem If I forget You G D Jerusalem If I forget You Outro: Em C G D
