City on the Hill Casting Crowns God is good! = This song is played with a capo 3. If you do not have a capo, up it 3 half steps. This is pretty accurate (about 90%), but any corrections are welcome. The chords in the passage part repeat all over the song, between the other parts. Sorry about the organization of the chords in the lyrics. The text editor didn't help. = The chords are (positions relative to the capo): * The introduction and the verses go like this: * Did you hear of the city on the hill? Said one old man to the other * It once shined bright and it would be shining still But they all started turning on each other * You see, the poets thought the dancers were shallow And the soldiers thought the poets were weak * And the elders saw the young ones as foolish And the rich man never heard the poor man speak And one by one They ran away With their made up minds To leave it all behind And the light began to fade In the city on the hill The city on the hill * Each one thought that they knew better That they were different by design * Instead of standing strong together They let their differences divide And one by one They ran away With their made up minds To leave it all behind And the light began to fade In the city on the hill The city on the hill Passage: * And the world is searching still * Bridge: But it was the rhythm of the dancers That gave the poets life It was the spirit of the poets That gave the soldiers strength to fight It was the fire of the young ones It was the wisdom of the old It was the story of the poor man That needed to be told Ending: * Come home And the Father's calling still * Come home To the city on the hill * Come home
