Well I can't believe, I'm sittin here today, 
                             D 
Pickin my banjo with a big smile on my face, 
         G            C9           G 
Writin' new words to a old school melody, 
                           D                 G 
There ain't no doubt that God's been good to me,

                C9                           G 
Cause he put me smack dab in the middle of paradise, 
        D                        C9          G 
In the heart of the city where my dreams come alive, 
             C9                  G 
Everything I have and everything I see, 
C9                    G

                                            D  
I've been down some darken detours weigh'n heavy on my face, 
          G            G/B         C9              G 
With the devil and my chain like a love don't set me free, 
C9    G    D                 G 
Halle | --lujah GOd's been good to me,

        D                        C9          G 
In the heart of the city where my dreams come alive,
