I Keep Listening

[Verso 1]

C

We hear about the wars, see famine in the land

F

There's questions in the children's eyes, trouble in the east again

Em7 F

The whole world is shaking, there's no sure place to stand

C F C

And mournful sounds are heard throughout the land

 

[Refrão]

C F

But I keep listening for a different sound.

C F

The sound of the city that John saw coming down.

C F

The sound of the Bride being united with the Groom.

C F

I keep listening, I keep listening,

C F C

I keep listening for a different sound.

 

[Verso 2]

C

I remember the preacher sayin' "Son, it shall come to pass,

F

There'll come a generation that will be the last."

Em Em7 F

I can't believe I'm standing here, seeing the end of time,

C F C

And the preacher's voice, echoing in my mind.

 

[Refrão]

C F

But I keep listening for a different sound.

C F

The sound of the city that John saw coming down.

C F

The sound of the Bride being united with the Groom.

C F

I keep listening, I keep listening,

C F C

I keep listening for a different sound.
