D
In the morning we will wake up and take to the air
Bm
Look back at the planet – I’m glued to my chair
D
Southern half is burning as we climb through the sky
Bm D
Sea birds softly falling, smoke way up high
D
There’s the contours of the mountains, the deserts and plains
Bm
And a hurricane is blowing and it turns once again
D
Now there’s oil spills in the water where columbus once sailed
Bm
And there’s history and mystery and it’s rolling away
G D/F# G D/F# Em
I wish I could see this great mystery
Bm G D G D Em
Earth and sun and moon, human tribe, thin blue line
Bm G D G D
Earth and sun and moon, will survive
INTRO
Sediment is flowing from river to sea
Now where are the mighty nations, no lines to be seen
An axe upon the broken ground, the sigh of the trees
And it’s floating in the ether, it brings me to my knees
Too messed up to care, anyone got a wing and a prayer
Earth and sun and moon, human tribe, thin blue line
Earth and sun and moon, will survive
In the blink of an eye, thank you and good night
Earth and sun moon
etc…
p.s. this is what I am calling D/F#: (what’s the proper name?!)

p.s. Jim Moginie wrote this one, as well as Warakurna. See any similarities?
