        E
By the time the luminous descent of the bright star unfolds
      E                                       D Dmaj7 D
And tablets of strange love are shattered and bruised
       E
By the time the oleander is falling from bloom
     E                              D Dmaj7 D
And tears of the crocodile water the sun


         C#m              B
  By the time you make up your mind
C#m           A
  If ever you do
C#m
  I hear the drums of heaven too

By the time paradise alley is littered with rust
        E                             D Dmaj7 D
And the arc of dayglo is curtained in gloom
       E
By the time kidney bone cities are crumbling to dust
        E                               D Dmaj7 D
And the empires and all of the emirates burn

      Ice on the mountain

    Sails in the desert

    Seers and the prophets
G  D
    Drums of heaven

Earth And Sun And Moon
Tom :D

 

        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

  The land lives longer if we listen to the Earthbeat

Our lives go forward if we listen to our heartspeak

D        Am              G
  Gonna find myself a place in the country
D               Am                        G
  Wake up and reach out and breathe real air
Bm                     C                       D
   Do you know how it feels, clean tissue, no scars

Minutes To Midnight
Tom :Am

 

Am
   Everybody say God is a good man
Am
   Ah, clock on the world
Am
Driving a dump truck up to the sun
Am
   A sigh in the human heart


Am     G           D           G
   I look at the clock on the wall
    Am          G         D         G
It says three minutes to midnight
 Am        G           D      G
Faith is blind when we're so near


Am
Phar Lap floating in a jar
Am
Seas full of submarines, A.W.A.C.'s like flies
Am
Truth gets harder to define
Am
     Talking in tongues


Am             G         D            G
   But the dancer's hand   grips the rail
    Am            G             D G
And fingers will blister on the 88's
Am           G        D          G 
Hope drains out the side of the page


Chorus:
          D

Cm     G/B


Am
   Everybody say God is a good man
Am
   Everybody say 1,2,3
Am
   Set up those gunsights in H.G.Wells' backyard
Am
   I.C.B.M.'s, S.S.20's, they lie so dormant, they got so many


Chorus:
Am    G          D       G
   Remember your childhood
Am    G          D    G    
   Remember your journey
Am        G       D      G
Hope is what you say and do

So you cut all the tall trees down

You poisoned the sky and the sea
        Em                          A     F C

        Em                    A   F C
There should be enough for us all
         G                     D    G D
But the dollar is driving us still


Chorus:
                Am
The river runs red, black rain falls
            G
Dust in my hand
            F               G
River runs red, black rain falls
                 D
  On my bleeding land


       Em                       A    F C
So we came and conquered and found
 G                     D    B7
Riches of commons and kings
       Em                         A    F C
Who strangled and wrestled the ground
          G                  D    B7
But they never put back anything
          Em                     A    F C
Now I'm trapped like a dog in a cage
     G                     D    B7
Where ever the truth is pursued
    Em                       A  F C
It must be the curse of the age
        G                 D     G D
What's taken is never renewed


The last Chorus goes:
               Am
The river runs red, black rain falls
            G
Dust in my hand
            F               G
River runs red, black rain falls
                 F  C  G  D  
  On my bleeding land
F C G D   F C G D  F C G D   F C G D
land....  land     land....   land

I believe   we're crossing a great ravine
      F#                     E
Still yearning,   half-way a stranger
F#       F#7    F#              F#7
I believe    in our multiplicity
      F#                        E
Still part-blind, no reason for anger
F#       F#7      F#                      F#7
I believe we pull up our roots and retreat
      F#                     E
A new crop of aerials in Dacca and Canberra

Vaseline, you smeared it across every scene

Anchor-man drowns in a sea of sensation
F#     F#7 F#                            F#7
Tyranny    crushing the young bird's seed

Halloween's mate short fuse of the banker

I thought myself wise through all of these hopeless times
                                                   E
But I told myself, told myself, you've got to hold on

  So why don't you tell me
  A             D    G
