Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder - My City of Ruins - Kennedy Center Honors (December 6, 2009) [Intro] C Am F C C Am F C C/B Am Am/G F [Verse 1]
C                     Am           F         C
There's a blood red circle on the cold dark ground

C             C/B   Am  Am/G  F
And the rain is falling down

C                        Am         F                C
The church doors thrown open I can hear the organ's song

C            C/B   Am  Am/G   F
But the congregation's gone
[Chorus]
             C  Am  F C
My city of ruins

             C  Am  F C
My city of ruins
[Verse 2]
C                       Am                     F        C
Now the sweet veils of mercy drift through the evening trees

                  C     C/B   Am  Am/G   F
Young men on the corner like scattered leaves

C                 Am          F        C
The boarded up windows, the empty streets

C                   C/B   Am  Am/G  F
And my brother's down on his knees
[Chorus]
             C  Am  F C
My city of ruins

             C  Am  F C
My city of ruins

C               Am      F          C
Now with these hands,  with these hands

C           Am      F          C
With these hands,  with these hands
(I pray Lord)
C           Am      F          C
With these hands,  with these hands
(I pray for the strength Lord)
C           Am      F          C
With these hands,  with these hands
(I pray for the faith Lord)
C           Am      F          C
With these hands,  with these hands
(I pray for Your love Lord)
C           Am      F          C
With these hands,  with these hands
(I pray for the lost Lord)
C           Am      F          C
With these hands,  with these hands
(I pray for the world Lord)
C           Am      F          C
With these hands,  with these hands

C               Am      F         C
Come on, Come on, Come on, Come on,

C               Am      F         C
Come on rise up!  Come on rise up!

                 C      C/B   Am    Am/G  F
Come on rise up!  Come on ri--------se up!
