Bruce Frederick Joseph Springsteen (born September 23, 1949), nicknamed "The Boss," is an American singer-songwriter and leader of the E Street Band. He is recognized for his poetic lyrics, his Jersey Shore roots, his distinctive voice, and his lengthy, energetic stage performances.
Springsteen has recorded both rock albums and more somber folk-oriented works. His most successful studio albums, Born to Run (1975) and Born in the U.S.A. (1984), find pleasures in the struggles of daily American life.

[Intro]
GEmCG GEmCGGDEmDCG
[Verse 1]
GEmCG There's a blood red circle on the cold dark ground DEmDCG And the rain is falling down EmCG The church doors thrown open I can hear the organ's song DEmDCG But the congregation's gone
[Chorus]
EmCG My city of ruins EmCG My city of ruins
[Verse 2]
GEmCG Now the sweet veils of mercy drift through the evening trees DEmDCG Young men on the corner like scattered leaves EmCG The boarded up windows, the empty streets DEmDCG While my brother's down on his knees
[Chorus]
EmCG My city of ruins EmCG My city of ruins
[Bridge]
EmCDG Come on rise up! Come on rise up! EmCDG Come on rise up! Come on rise up! EmCDG Come on rise up! Come on rise up! DEmDCG Come on ri--------se up
(repeat intro)
[Verse 3]
GEmCG Now there's tears on the pillow darling where we slept DEmDCG And you took my heart when you left EmCG Without your sweet kiss my soul is lost, my friend DEmDCG Now tell me how do I begin again?
[Chorus]
EmCG My city's in ruins EmCG My city's in ruins
[Verse 4]
GEmCG Now with these hands, with these hands GEmCG With these hands, with these hands (I pray Lord) GEmCG 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 lost Lord) With these hands, with these hands (I pray for the world Lord) With these hands, with these hands
[Outro]
EmCDG Come on rise up! Come on rise up! EmCDG Come on rise up! Come on rise up! EmCDG Come on rise up! Come on rise up! EmCDG Come on rise up! Come on rise up! DEmDCG Come on ri--------se up
