D5
In the morning we will wake up and take to the air
                                           B5
Look back at the planet - I'm glued to my chair
 D5
Southern half is burning as we climb through the sky
                                         B5     D5
Sea birds softly falling, smoke way up high


             D5
There's the contours of the mountains, the deserts and plains
                                               B5
And a hurricane is blowing and it turns once again
            D5
Now there's oil spills in the water where Columbus once sailed
                                                   B5
And there's history and mystery and it's rolling away


G5  D5                  G5  D5               E5
         I wish I could see    this great mystery
 B5        G5       D5        G5   D5                E5
Earth and sun and moon, human tribe, thin blue line
 B5        G5       D5      G5       D5
Earth and sun and moon, will survive


        D5
Sediment is flowing from river to sea

Now where are the mighty nations, no lines to be seen
        D5
An axe upon the broken ground, the sigh of the trees

And it's floating in the ether, it brings me to my knees


G5  D5                  G5  D5               E5
Too messed up to care, anyone got a wing and a prayer
 B5        G5       D5        G5   D5                E5
Earth and sun and moon, human tribe, thin blue line
 B5        G5       D5      G5       D5
Earth and sun and moon, will survive


G5  D5                  G5  D5               E5
In the blink of an eye, thank you and good night
 B5        G5       D5        G5   D5                E5
Earth and sun and moon, human tribe, thin blue line
 B5        G5       D5      G5       D5
Earth and sun and moon, will survive
