[Verse 1]
Twelve Chundred miles its length and breadth that G7four square city Cstands
It's Cgem set walls of jasper shine not G7made with human Chands
One Fhundred miles it's Cgates are wide aFbundant entrance Cthere
With Ffifty miles of Celbow room on G7either side to Cspare
[Chorus]
When the Cgates swing wide on the other side just beFyond the sunset Csea
There'll be Croom to spare as we enter there room for you and G7room for me
For the Cgates are wide on the other side where the Fflowers silver Cbloom
On the Fright hand on the Cleft hand fifty miles of G7elbow Croom G7 C
[Verse 2]
SomeCtimes I'm cramped and crowded here and G7long for elbow Croom
I Cwant to reach for altitude where G7fair flowers Cbloom
It Fwon't be long till CI shall pass inFto that city Cfair
With Ffifty miles of Celbow room on either G7side to Cspare
[Chorus]
When the Cgates swing wide on the other side just beFyond the sunset Csea
There'll be Croom to spare as we enter there room for you and G7room for me
For the Cgates are wide on the other side where the Fflowers silver Cbloom
On the Fright hand on the Cleft hand fifty miles of G7elbow Croom
