D                                               G 
I woke up this mornin' and none of the news was good  
    D                   Bm                  G                  A 
And death machines were rumblin' 'cross the ground where Jesus stood  
        D                                            G  
And the man on my TV told me it had always been that way  
              D          A               Dsus  D 
And there was nothin' anyone could do or say   
D            Bm               D 
And I almost listened to him 
D       G              D 
Yeah, I almost lost my mind  
                   Bm           D 
Then I regained my senses again 
       G                      A  
looked into my heart to find 
D                                                        G  
That I believe that one fine day all the children of Abraham  
         D                   Bm        A    Dsus   D 
Will lay  down their swords forever in Jerusalem   
 
 
Well maybe I'm only dreamin' and maybe I'm just a fool  
But I don't remember learnin' how to hate in Sunday school  
But some where along the way I strayed and I never looked back again  
But I still find some comfort now and then 
Then the storm comes rumblin' in 
And I can't lay me down  
And the drums are drummin' again  
And I can't stand the sound  
But I believe there'll come a day when the lion and the lamb  
Will lie down in peace together in Jerusalem 
 
              
And there'll be no barricades then  
There'll be no wire or walls  
And we can wash all this blood from our hands  
And all this hatred from our souls 
And I believe that on that day all the children of Abraham  
Will lay down their swords forever in Jerusalem
