Steve Earle es un cantautor estadounidense de música country y rock, nacido en la base militar "Fort Monroe", en la ciudad de Hampton, Virginia. Aunque es más conocido por la música, también ejerce ocasionalmente como escritor y activista político. En sus primeros años de su carrera como músico fue visto como uno de los salvadores y renovadores de la música country, y comenzaron a llamarle "el nuevo Bruce Springsteen" (aunque sea sólo seis años menor y nunca haya alcanzado el mismo nivel de ventas que Springsteen).
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
DG I woke up this mornin' and none of the news was good DBmA And death machines were rumblin' 'cross the ground where Jesus stood DG And the man on my TV told me that it had always been that way DBmA And there was nothin' anyone could do or say
Prechorus: Bm And I almost listened to him A Yeah, I almost lost my mind Bm Then I regained my senses again A And looked into my heart to find
Chorus: DG That I believe that one fine day all the children of Abraham D (G)* AD Will lay down their swords forever in Jerusalem
Well maybe I'm only dreamin' and maybe I'm just a fool But I don't remember learnin' how to hate in Sunday school But somewhere along the way I strayed and I never looked back again But I still find some comfort now and then
Then the storm comes rumblin' in And I can't lay me down And the drums are drummin' again And I can't stand the sound
But I believe there'll come a day when the lion and the lamb Will lie down in peace together in Jerusalem
And there'll be no barricades then There'll be no wire or walls And we can wash all this blood from our hands And all this hatred from our souls
And I believe that on that day all the children of Abraham Will lay down their swords forever in Jerusalem
*This (G) is optional; it sounds right with or without it, and I can't tell which way Steve plays it.
