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
