_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Gb] _ _ [Gbm] _ _ _ _
_ All of the [D] life in the city of [Dbm] gold, he left to let nobody [Abm] know
_ [Gbm] Gone were the [D] towns he had known from [Dbm] child, along with the [Gbm] dream of [Abm] a life _
_ _ [Db] Traveled [Gb] the wide open [Ab] road, the blinkered [Fm] arcade
_ [Ab] Searching out [Ebm] God, sharing [Fm] his life, _ _ [Bb] nowhere
_ _ [Eb] _ Everyone looked [Ab] so strange to him, [Eb] he got no horns [Ebm] and he got no tail
[Abm] He don't even know of [Eb] our existence, [Ebm] am I wrong to believe in the city of gold?
[Abm] Lies in the [Ebm] distance, [Db] he cried, [Gbm] when does he let him away to a [E] cage?
Beasts that can talk [Ebm] read the sign, _ _ [Gbm] the creatures they [Gbm] pushed and they bribed his [Dbm] brain
And questioned his [Abm] story again, _ _ [Db] _ they grew bored [Ab] of their prey
The beasts [Fm] that can talk, more like a freak, [Ab] all of the city stunk
_ [Eb] _ [Bb] Oh, _ _ [Db] _ [Eb] no, _ [Db] _ [Ab] _
oh, they [Eb] got no horns and they got no [Ebm] tail
[Abm] He don't even [Db] know of our [F] existence, [Ebm] am I wrong to believe in the city of gold?
[Abm] Lies in [Db] the [Eb] distance, he cried, and broke down the door of the cage and [Db] was thrown out
He was born, _ _ _
_ _ [Ab] _ grabbed the creature by the slum of his neck, [Db] pointing out
_ _ [F] _ _
_ _ [Bb] There beyond [F] the bounds of [Eb] your weak _ _ [Bb] imagination
_ _ _ Lied the noble [F] towers of [Eb] my city, bright [F] and gold
Let [G] me take you there, [Dm] show you a [C] living story
_ [Eb] _ _
_ _ [Bb] Let me show [Db] you what is such [Eb] a thing, why [Abm] did I _ _ _ _ ever [Db] leave?
_ _ _ _ _ [Ebm] He got no horns and he got no tail, [Abm] he don't even know of [Eb] our existence, am [Ebm] I wrong to believe in the city of gold?
_ [Abm] Lies in the distance, he cried and [Gbm] wept _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ [Gb] _ _
_ [Gbm] _ _ _ _ And so we set out with the beast and [Dbm] his horns and his crazy [A] description [Abm] of all
_ [Gbm] After many days [D] journey we came to [Dbm] a peak where the beast kissed the broad and [Abm] cried out
We _ [Db] followed [Gb] his gaze and [Ab] we thought that maybe [Fm] we saw
A spire [Ab] of gold, no [Fm] trickery I, _ [Bb] that's all
[Ebm] But the beast was gone [Ab] and the voice was heard
[Ebm] He got no horns and he got no tail, [Abm] he don't even know [Ebm] of our [Db] existence, [Ebm] am I wrong to believe in the city of gold?
[Abm] Lies in the [Ebm] distance

Thanks [Gbm] _ _ _ _ [Gb] for _ _ [Gbm] _ _ _ _ [Gb] _ _

_ [A] watching! _ _ _ _ _
