[Intro]
Bm Asus4 G
[Verse]
Bm Asus4 G Bm
This city is made of stone
Asus4 G
Earth and ground is moved, stacked
Bm
to build a home
Asus4 G Bm
The trees are standing all alone
Asus4
Transplanted to the city streets
G A
To make this place feel more like home
[Prechorus]
G
A place we do not know
D Cadd9
But it’s fine, oh it’s fine,
G A
oh it’s fine…
G
A place where I long to go
D Cadd9
Where it’s mine, oh it’s mine,
G
oh it’s mine…
A
Oh it’s time
[Chorus]
D
If the streets turned to a riverway
A
And the cars just simply float away
Bm
And the buildings turned to redwood trees
G
Taller than the eye can see
D
If I could watch that sun go up and down
A
On the other side of town
Bm
And if the streetlights turned to moonlight
E
If the streetlights turned to moonlight
G G Bm
Baby that’d be alright, it’d be alright with me
[Verse]
Asus4 G Bm
And the noise down on the streets
Asus4 G Bm
Of beeps and bangs and honks and dogs and baby’s screams
Asus4 G Bm
The noise is jumbled like a sea
Asus4 G A
It rolls like thunder and the rumbling is calling out to me
[Prechorus]
G
I hear the mountains call my name
D Cadd9 G A
Singing ah…..
G
The sweeping valleys do the same
D Cadd9 G A
Singing ah… ah....
[Chorus]
D
If the streets turned to a riverway
A
And the cars just simply float away
Bm
And the buildings turned to redwood trees
G
Taller than the eye can see
D
If I could watch that sun go up and down
A
On the other side of town
Bm
And if the streetlights turned to moonlight
G
If the streetlights turned to moonlight
D
If the birds flew south when winter came
A
And we all packed up and did the same
Bm
Just to catch a taste of God’s green earth
G
Is to drink the cup of life’s rebirth
D
And if this cold concrete beneath our toes
A
Was a wide green field where flowers grow
Bm
From up here on the third floor balcony
G
I can see the possibilities
[Bridge]
D Cadd9 G
Ah... (x4)
[Ending]
D
And the thunder on the street below
A
Finally begins to slow
Bm G
As the streetlights turn to moonlight
D Cadd9 G
