[Em]What do I

[Verse 1]
do next,
[G]said the bishop to the priest?
[Am]I have spent [A]my whole life wait[Am]ing,
prepar[C]ing for [D]the feast.
[Em]Now you say Jerusalem has
[G]fallen and is lost,
The King [A]of heathen Sara[Am]cen
has [C]seized [D]the Holy [Em]Cross.
Then the priests said, O my bishop,
we [G]must put them to the sword,
For [Am]God in all his mercy
will find [C]a just reward,
[D]For the nob[Em]le men and sinners
and knight[G]s of ready hand,
Who will be the [Am]Lord's crusaders
and word [D]to all the [Em]land.[D][C][D]

[D][Em]
Tell me what to do,
said the [G]king upon his throne
But speak to me in whisper[A]s,
for [Am]we are not alone
[D]They [Em]tell me that Jerusalem has
[G]fallen to the hand
of some bedeviled
Eastern [Am]heathen
who has [C]seized the [D]Holy [Em]Land.[E]
Then the [Em]Chamberlain said, [G]Lord,
we must call upon our foes
[Am]in Spain and France and Germany
to end [C]our bitter wars.
[D]All Chr[Em]istian men must be as one
and [G]gather for the fight.
You will [Am]be their leader.
Begin [C]the [D]battle [Em]cry[D]

Jerusalem [D]is [Em]lost[D]
[C]Jerusalem is [D]los[Em]t[D]

Jerusalem [D]is [Em]lost[E][Em][F]
[Am]High on a hill in the town of Jer[F]usalem
There [Am]stood Saladin,
the king of the [F]Saracens
Whor[G]ing and drinking and [G#dim]snoring
and sinking [Am]around in his army [F]bay
Se[C]curing the knowledge
that [E]he had won the [Am]day
A messenger came, blood on his feet
and [F]a wound in his chest
Chris[Am]tians are coming, he said,
I have seen [F]their cross in the west
In a [G]rage, Saladin struck
him down [G#dim]with his knife
And he said, I [Am]know that this man [F]lies
They [C]quarreled too much,
the [E]Christians could [Am]never unite
[F]I a[G]m i[Am]nvincible, I[F] am the king
[E]I h[F]ave[G] been delive[Am]red and I wi[F]ll [G]win[Am][F]
I [G]will [Am]win[G][F]
[G]Clo[Am]ser they came,
the army of Richard the Lion[F]heart
[Am]Marching by day and night,
with soldiers from [F]every part.
And [G]when the crusaders
came [G#dim]over the mountain
and they [Am]saw J[F]erusalem,
They [C]fell to their knees
and [E]prayed for her release.
[Am]They started the battle at dawn,
tak[F]ing the city by storm.
With [Am]horsemen and bowmen
and engines of war
[F]They broke through the city walls
The [G]heathens were flying
and [G#dim]screaming and [E]dy ing
And the [Am]Christian song was [F]strong
And [C]Satan didn't rant
when he [E]heard their victory [Am]song
[F]We [G]are invin[Am]cible
[F]God is the King
[E]We [F]are[G] invincib[Am]le and we [F]wil[G]l win[Am]

[Verse 2]
[Em]What do I do now,
said [G]the wise man
To the fool I have spent
[A]I've my whole life searching
to [C]find the golden [D]rule
Though [Em]centuries have disappeared,
[G]the memory still remains
of [A]those enemies togeth[Am]er
Could it be that [D]way [Em]again?
Then the fool said, oh you wise man,
[G]you really make me laugh
With your talk [A]of vast persuasion
and search[C]ing through the past
[D]There is only [Em]greed and evil
in the [G]men who fight today
The song [A]of the crusader
has [C]long since [D]gone [Em]away[D][C]
