           C   G   C
There is a city of gold
              C                           F
far from this rat-race with the bars that hold
                C                     F
far from the confusion, eat's at your soul
           C   G   F     C
There is a city of gold. 

There is a country of light 
Raised up in glory, angels wearing white 
Never know sickness, never know night 
There is a country of light. 

There is a city of love 
Way from this world, stuff dreams are made of 
Fear of no darkness, stars high above 
There is a city of love. 

There is a city of hope 
There ain't no doctor, don't need no dope 
I'm ready and willing, throw down a rope 
There is a city of hope. 

There is a city of gold
Far from this rat race And these bars that hold 
Rest for your spirit, peace for your soul 
There is a city of gold
           C   G   F   C/e Dm C
There is a city of gold
