Lady of the harbor

This song appears on the Brother Sun CD "Some Part of the Truth". 

From far away, and distant lands
The tempest tossed with hopeful hearts and calloused hands
Reach for the light, the torch held high
And cast their gaze upon the Lady of the Harbor
(capo up) G  - Bm -  / C G D  - / G - Bm -  / C G D G
And she welcomes them with open arms
She says let my children in
Shine on, Shine on 
Oh you Lady of the Harbor
Em   D G   C / EmD  G C - / G -  Bm - / C D G -

And so it was, with my own kin
They sailed from Sweden and from France, and Ireland
Their earthly cares, packed in their bags
They cast their gaze upon the Lady of the Harbor

(bridge) Now we're locking down the borders & we're filling up the jails
And we say they don't belong
How conveniently do we forget
That we've all come to sing the same sweet song
Em  D G  C / EmD  G C - / Em  D G C / Am Bm  C -

Will the dream, survive the strain
Will huddled masses have a chance to learn it's sweet refrain
Or will we fall, into our fears
And turn our backs against the Lady of the Harbor.
