Intro | E7 | A |
A | D | A |
I'm satisfied with just a | cottage | below |
E7 | A | |
A little | silver and a little | gold |
D | A | |
But in that city where the | ransomed will | shine |
E7 | A | |
I want a | gold one that's silver | lined |
|
Turnaround | E7 | A |
D | A | |
Don't think me poor or de | serted or lonely |
E7 | A | |
I'm not dis | couraged I’m heaven | bound |
D | A | |
I'm but a pilgrim in | search of the | city |
E7 | A | |
I want a | mansion a harp and a | crown |
|
E7 | A | |
But walk on | streets that are purest | gold |
