[Intro]
C
[Verse 1]
On the sCtreets of New York City where the asphalt greets the Fsun
MoFrning slips in sideways like a cheetah on the Crun
She’s Cout there on the sidewalk kneeling at her Ftoil
Pulling weGeds for Jesus with her Fknuckles in the Csoil
[Verse 2]
She Cis no St. Theresa. She is no paraFgon.
FiFngernails are dirty. Her old blue jeans are woCrn.
She dCoesn’t talk to strangers she hardly knows you’re thFere.
She doesn’t wGant your money she doesn’t want your prayers because
[Chorus]
TAm7his is  G/BGod's  Cdominion Am7this is G/Bpeace on Cearth
TAm7his is G/Bwhat she's Cput here for Fthis is what she's Gworth 
All the Fother Gthings that mCatter have Fslowly Gslipped Amaway
Now she Fgrows her Croses she Fgrows her Croses
and Dmshe gEmrows her Froses all Cday.C  C  
[Verse 3]
She remCembers a young woman with hair as fine Fas gold
She remFembers all her lovers and she remembers grCowing old
She remCembers meeting Jesus she can’t recall the dayF  
She gave him Gall her seeds of darkness he buried them away because
[Chorus]
Am7This is  G/BGod's  Cdominion Am7this is G/Bpeace on Cearth
TAm7his is G/Bwhat she's Cput here for Fthis is what she's Gworth
All the Fother Gthings that Cmatter have Fslowly Gslipped Amaway

and Dmshe Emgrows her Froses all Cday.

[Verse 4]
Now she cCoaxes hope from concrete and she coaxes right from Fwrong
She mFakes the Spanish ladies break into their Spanish Csong
Well at nCight they smell her roses in the streetlamp’s yellow Fsun
and they drGeam of summer dresses in the streets of old San Juan because
[Chorus]
Am7This is  G/BGod's Cdominion Am7this is G/Bpeace on Cearth
TAm7his is G/Bwhat she's Cput here for Fthis is what she's Gworth
All the Fother Gthings that Cmatter have Fslowly Gslipped Amaway

Yeah she Fgrows her Croses she gFrows her rCoses
and Dmshe Emgrows her Froses all Cday.
