^G The highways ^Am quiet scars across ^Em the land.
^C People lie, eye ^Fm s closed, no longer dreaming,
^G The ear ^Am th d ^Em ies screaming.
^C Like scattered pebbles, ^Fm cars lie silent waiting,
^G Oilless eng ^Am ines seized by dirt an ^Em d sand.
^C Bodies hanging ^Fm limp, no longer bleeding,
^G The eart ^Am h di ^Em es screaming.
^C The earth dies screaming
^Fm The earth dies screaming
^G Your country ^Am needs you, lets strike u ^Em p the band.
^C The earth dies screaming
^Fm The earth dies screaming
^G Despite all o ^Am dds we must defend our ^Em land.
^C Half eaten meals ^Fm lie rotting on the tables,
^G Money clutche ^Am d within a ^Em boney hand.
^C Shutters down, th ^Fm e banks are not receiving,
^G The eart ^Am h d ^Em ies screaming
