G D4/F# G
To the east we have our lowest land
C9 Em7 C9
Taken from the sea
G
But soon it will be taken back
C9 Em7 D4/F# G
As the black water comes creeping back
G D4/F# G
To the west we have triumphant hills
C9 Em7 C9
And lakes that dress the scars
G
But soon it will be taken back
C9 Em7 D4/F# G
As the black water shatters and cracks
G C9
So we look to the stars
C9 Em7
In their infinite sky
Em7 C9 Em7 C9 Em7
As science and faith collide into the night
G D4/F# G
We're in the firing line..... again
G D4/F# G
To the south we have our richest land
C9 Em7 C9
But Christ you have to pay
G
But soon there?ll be nowhere to stay
C9 Em7 D4/F# G
As the black water retreats away
G D4/F# G
To the north Monroes scatter the land
C9 Em7 C9
They lead the rain astray
G
But the rain will take its share away
C9 Em7 D4/F# G
And where black water was earth remains
G C9
So we look to the past
C9 Em7
To some difficult time
Em7 C9 Em7 C9 Em7
As science and faith collide into the night
C9 Em7 D4/F# G
We?re in the firing line... again
G D4/F# G
So herein lies some sound... advice
C9 Em7 C9
Much older than its years
G
Move to the north and ride your luck
G MUTE
Cos elsewhere you'll be f*****
N/C C9
So we look to our god
C9 Em7
To some promising heir
Em7 C9 Em7 C9 Em7
As science and faith collide into the night
C9 Em7 D4/F# G
We?re in the firing line... again
G C9 Em7
As science and faith collide
D4/F# Em7
We?ll fight right back
C9 Em7 D4/F# G
Until the firing line has changed
