D#m                                        B  C#
The highway's screamin', callin' out your name
D#m
Cause every road that you travel on
                    B  C#
There's a price to pay

B                     F#/A#
A thousands eyes are starin'
          C#
But the blind still lead the blind

Chorus:
G#m
Where will you turn if it
all goes wrong and you're on the run
         B F#
Jerusalem? - x2

You say you walked through the valley
You say you've seen the signs
Echoes call you from a distant age
Or is it in your mind?

Then a thousands souls rise from the sea
Holding up the sun

And an angel cries beware your lies'
It could be the end of it all

Chorus - x2

A                     B
Everybody knows your name,
A                   C#
every road leads to anger
A                      B
Will it always be the same,
A                    C#
is there reason to return?

Then a thousands souls rise from the sea
Holding up the sun

And an angel cries beware your lies'
It could be the end of it all

Chorus - x2

G#m                           B F#
When an angel cries - Jerusalem
Better watch your lies - Jerusalem
When an angel cries - Jerusalem
