On the morning of my birth I must have wondered at the earth

    E5         D/F#        G           D/F#       E5  D/F#   G 
But now I am american and white, all I know is anxiety and fright

       E5    D/F#      G       D/F# 
The shephard is in a field of reality 
  E5        D/F#       G     D/F# 
Blames the sheep for lost possibilities 
E5    D/F#    G     D/F#                       E5          D/F#   G   D/F# 
The sheep may be lost but the shepherd, he is just as lost 
     E5    D/F#  G     D/F# 
A shepherd is a man afraid of 
  E5    D/F#    G        D/F# 
Losing all the things he made up to 
E5             D/F#    G     D/F#      E5    D/F#  G     D/F# 
Keep his feet planted high above the field 
                         E5    D/F#    G     D/F# 
And I'm talkin' about mother, father, sister, brother 
   E5      D/F#      G    D/F#  E5           D/F#          G     D/F# 
Teacher, preacher, anyone who dares to tell you where to stand 
           E5    D/F#      G     D/F# 
I say the love is in your hands 
       E5         D/F#         G         D/F# 
Just look at the world, don't try to understand
