Chords for Bruce Springsteen - My City of Ruin (Lyrics)

[N] _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ It's a prayer for our fallen brothers and sisters.
_ [A] There's a blood [F#m] red circle _ [D] on the cold [A] dark ground
_ And the rain is [F#] falling [E] down
_ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [A] The church door's [F#m] thrown open, I [D] can hear the organ [A] song
_ But the _
_ _ [E] congregation's gone
[D] _ _
_ _ _ My city [A] of ruin, [F#m] _ _ my _ [D] _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ [Am] city of [A] ruin
_ [F#m] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ Now the sweet bells of [F#m] mercy drift [D] through the evening [A] trees
_ Young men on the corner [E]
like [F#] scattered _ [D] leaves _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] The boarded up [F#m] windows, _ _ [D] the empty [A] streets
_ And my brother's [E] _
[F#m] down on his [E] _ [D] knees _ _
_ _ My [A] city of ruin, _
[F#m] _ _ my _ [D] _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ city of ruin _
[F#m] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _
_ _ [D] Come on, _ _ rise up!
_ [A] Come on, [E] rise _ [A]
up!
_ Come [D] on, rise up!
_ Come [E] on, rise _ [A]
up!
_ Come [D] on, rise _ up!
_ Come [E] on, _ [A] rise up!
_ Come on _ _ _
[F#m] _ _ [E] _ [D] rise _ _ up
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ [F#m] _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [A] Now there's _ tears on the pillow
_ _ [D] Shrouding where [A] we slipped
_ _ And you took my [E] _
heart when you [D] left _ _ _ _
_ _ Without [A] your sweet kiss my [F#] soul
[F#m] Is [D] lost my [A] friend
_ _ Tell me how do [F#m] I begin [E] _ again
[D] _ _ _ _
My city's [A] in ruin
_ [F#m] _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ [A] _
My city's in ruin
_ [F#m] _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ Now with [F#m] these hands
