CEDARS OF LEBANON

VERSE 1
G+G
A augmentedA long way from Pharoah's hand,
   D MajorD          C majorC    G+G
and a quick step from the Promised Land,
G+G
a quick step from Palestine,
   D MajorD          C majorC    G+G
and a heartbeat from this heart of mine:
C majorC        BB
Rock-fall at the Wailing Wall,
D MajorD           G+G
and the temple-keepers fly
C majorC
to where Time machines
    BB
those great, green trees
   D MajorD       G+G
to a holy timber-land.

CHORUS
G+G     C majorC    G+G
I was raised in the shade
D MajorD        D7D7
of the Cedars of Lebanon,
G+G     C majorC    G+G
and I've bathed in the bay
    D MajorD         A minorAm
where sailors burned the sand,
D MajorD           A minorAm
then gave the glass to man
D MajorD      G+G
and all his kind;
D MajorD         A minorAm
past the sight of land,
D MajorD           A minorAm
they rode on ships to Spain
  D MajorD      G+G
for what they'd find.

VERSE 2
G+G
Big towns, and your hearts are down,
        D MajorD     C majorC     G+G
Dand your eyes burn-your heels get round.
G+G
Smoke's up, and the sky turns brown-
D MajorD            C majorC      G+G
there's a place you know, where your fancy grounds.
D MajorD          A minorAm
No dreams on silver screens,
D MajorD            A minorAm
they've found a place to hide:
D MajorD           A minorAm
the Holy Land of gods and man
D MajorD          G+G
is where your spirit flies.

CHORUS
G+G     C majorC    G+G
I was raised in the shade
      D MajorD   D7D7
of the Cedars of Lebanon,
G+G     C majorC    G+G
and I've bathed in the bay
    D MajorD         A minorAm
where sailors burned the sand,
D MajorD           A minorAm
then gave the glass to man
D MajorD      G+G
and all his kind;
D MajorD         A minorAm
past the sight of land,
D MajorD           A minorAm
they rode on ships to Spain
  D MajorD      G+G
for what they'd find.
