Jerusalem chords

[C]My name comes from the s[Dm]oil where the J[Am]ordan River fl[G]ows
And on e[C]ach side of the [Dm]river, theres a [Am]house that a man calls h[G]ome

And their h[F]omes are bu[C]ilt on the [C]earth [G/B]and s[Am]tone
And the e[F]arth and s[C]tone catch the [G]rain
And the r[F]ain it f[C]alls on Je[C]rusal[G/B]ems wa[Am]lls
And i[F]n those walls each m[G]an goes to pr[C]ay

My name stands for glory and a city thats paved with gold.
Thats a gold that stands for wanting what the other man calls his own

And the war is waged over earth and stone
And the blood is spilt like the rain
And the rain it falls on Jerusalems walls
And in those walls each man goes to pray
And each man pr[Am]ays quite the sa[F]me
One man kne[C]els, one bows his h[G]ead
And they built wa[Am]lls quite like a c[F]age
And on [C]each side a different name is sa[G]id

My name it speaks a language that is almost as old as time
And through that time and its telling comes a story and a great divide

For the words were carved in the earth and stone
And they pass through the land like the rain
And the rain it falls on Jerusalems wall
And in those walls each man goes to pray

And each man builds his wall of stone
That it wont break like he breaks bread
It matters not which side youre on
It makes no difference to a man whos not been fed.

My name tells the story of a giant overthrown
A small boy who knows not glory
A young shepherd and a younger son

And the giant fell by the slinging stone
And the tears of joy fell like rain
And the rain still falls on Jerusalems walls
And in those walls each man goes to pray
