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
D
Sediment is flowing from river to sea
Now where are the mighty nations, no lines to be seen
D
An axe upon the broken ground, the sigh of the trees
And it's floating in the ether, it brings me to my knees
G D/F# G D/F# Em
Too messed up to care, anyone got a wing and a prayer
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
G D/F# G D/F# Em
In the blink of an eye, thank you and good night
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
