My [Bb] city of [Gm] ruins, [Eb] [Bb]
my city of [Gm] ruins, [Eb] [Bb]
now the sweet [Gm] bells of mercy trickle [Eb] through the evening [Bb]
trees.

Tell me how do [F] I [Gm] begin [F] again?
[Eb] My [Bb] city's in [Gm] ruins, [Eb] my [Bb]
city's in [Gm] ruins.
[Eb] [Bb]
Now with [Gm] these hands, [Eb] with [Bb] these hands, with [Gm] these hands, [Eb] with [Bb] these hands.
