Written by Moginie/Jim Moginie
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
