[Intro]
G Em C G
G Em C G G D Em D C G
[Verse 1]
G Em C G
There's a blood red circle on the cold dark ground
D Em D C G
And the rain is falling down
Em C G
The church doors thrown open I can hear the organ's song
D Em D C G
But the congregation's gone
[Chorus]
Em C G
My city of ruins
Em C G
My city of ruins
[Verse 2]
G Em C G
Now the sweet veils of mercy drift through the evening trees
D Em D C G
Young men on the corner like scattered leaves
Em C G
The boarded up windows, the empty streets
D Em D C G
While my brother's down on his knees
[Chorus]
Em C G
My city of ruins
Em C G
My city of ruins
