Looking For A City

Intro (Strum Once):
F


Verse 1:
F                      A#
Here among the shadows in a lonely 
land,
F                             
We're a band of pilgrims on the 
  C
move;
F                           A#
Burdened down with sorrows, shunned 
on every hand,
F             C          F
Looking for a city built above.


Chorus:
F                   A#       
Looking for a city, where we'll 
         F
never die,
F                           G    
There the sainted millions, never
          C
 say good-bye,
F                            A#  
There we'll meet our Savior, and 
               F
our loved ones too,
A#          F       G  C       
Come O Holy Spirit, all our 
     F  A#  F
hopes renew.

actual recording, hence the [ ], but
 it's nice
to have the full version of songs)

Verse 2:
F                      A#
[Here in disappointment we so sadly 
roam,
F                               C
Friends no longer speak one word of 
love;
F                      A#
O we have found contentment, Jesus 
promised us a home,
F             C          F
And I'm looking for a city built 
above.]


Chorus:
F                   A#       
Looking for a city, where we'll 
         F
never die,
F                           G    
There the sainted millions, never
          C
 say good-bye,
F                            A#  
There we'll meet our Savior, and 
               F
our loved ones too,
A#          F       G  C       
Come O Holy Spirit, all our 
     F  A#  F
hopes renew.


Verse 3:
F                      A#
In this land of dangers going here 
and there
F                             
Trusting in the blessed Saviors 
  C
love;
F                      A#
Tho' we may be strangers, in this 
world of care,
F             C          F
Looking for a city built above.


Chorus:
F                   A#       
Looking for a city, where we'll 
         F
never die,
F                           G    
There the sainted millions, never
          C
 say good-bye,
F                            A#  
There we'll meet our Savior, and 
               F
our loved ones too,
A#          F       G  C       
Come O Holy Spirit, all our 
     F  A#  F
hopes renew.
