CAPO: 4th Fret
INTRO: C
It was winter on the Mersey
Am
Snow was falling on New York
C
The boats were coming in from Ireland
Am
A nation drinking round the docks
Dm Am
What do you do when the rain is falling
Dm Am C
What do you do when the rain is falling down
Young men were heading back to Europe
Am
Rocking the Reeperbahn at night
C
We watched the airwaves over Eval
Am
Angels were dancing in the light
Dm Am
What do you do when the sun is sinking
Dm Am C
What do you do when the sun is sinking low
The chains, slaves, praise and gospel
Am
Burn like the sun in tortured mouths
C
A hurricane blew out of Memphis
Am
Revolution in the south
Dm Am
What do you do when the sun is beating
Dm Am C
What do you do when the sun is beating down
Spirits drink the milk of nations
Am
Singing freedom and release
C
Cries of mercy rise like rockets
Am
Through the paths of the redeemed, oh ooh oh
Dm Am
What do you do when the guns are turning
Dm Am C
What do you do when the guns are turning 'round
Dm Am
What do you do when the guns are turning
Dm Am C
What do you do when the guns are turning 'round
CHORUS:
What do you do
Sing a song of the earth
F
Song the earth
C
Song the earth
A singer in my bloodstream
Am
Stayed mainline all my life
C
His voice filled my Atlantic
Am
A Celtic fire, a soul of white
Dm Am
What do you do when your homes are burning
Dm Am C
What do you do when your homes are burning down
He wore the beauty of his people
Am
Came to tell it to the world
C
Human tears, human oceans
Am
The greatest song I've ever heard
Dm Am
What do you do when your hope is raging
Dm Am C
What do you do when your hope is raging strong
It was winter on the Mersey
Am
Through the museum on the docks
C
Through all my years, through my failures
Am
To where the white piano stood
Dm Am
What do you do when the rain is falling
Dm Am C
What do you do when the rain is falling down
Saw all the singers of the Gaidhealtachd
Am
And all the world could understand
C
I heard, maybe I'm a dreamer
Am
I'm not the only one
Dm Am
What do you do when the song you're singing
Dm Am C
What do you do when the song you're singing's gone
Dm Am
What do you do when the song you're singing
Dm Am C
What do you do when the song you're singing's gone
CHORUS: (## repeat and fade to end ##)
F
Song the earth
C
Song the earth
F
Song the earth
C
Song the earth
