Matisyahu - Jerusalem

In the ^Emancient days, we will return with no delay ^CPicking up the bounty and the spoils on our way ^GWe've been traveling from state to state And them ^Ddon't understand what they say ^Em3,000 years with no place to be And they ^Cwant me to give up my milk and honey Don't you ^Gsee, it's not about the land or the sea Not the ^Dcountry but the dwelling of his majesty

J^Emerusalem, if I forget you, ^C Fire not gonna come from me tongue. Je^Grusalem, if I forget you, ^DLet my right hand forget what it's supposed to do

^EmRebuild the temple and the crown of glory ^CYears gone by, about sixty We were ^Gburned in the oven in this century And the ^Dgas tried to choke, but it couldn't choke me I will ^Emnot lie down, I will not fall asleep So they ^Ccome overseas, yes they're trying to be free E^Grase the demons out of our memory C^Dhange your name and your identity Af^Emraid of the truth and our dark history ^CWhy is everybody always chasing we ^GCut off the roots of your family tree ^DDon't you know that's not the way to be

^EmCaught up in these ways, and the worlds gone craze ^GDon't you know it's just a phase, cause of the Simon says If ^BmI forget the truth then my words won't penetrate Babylon ^F#mburning in the place, can't see through the haze ^EmChop down all of them dirty ways, That's the ^Gprice that you pay for selling lies to the youth No ^Bmway, not ok, oh No ^F#mway, not ok, hey

^EmAint no one gonna break my stride ^CAint no one gonna pull me ^Gdown x2 Oh no, I ^Dgot to keep on moving

Je^Emrusalem If ^CI forget You Je^Grusalem If ^DI forget You Je^Emrusalem If ^CI forget You Je^Grusalem If ^DI forget You
