C Fm
A warm dry wind is all that breaks the silence,
G Am Em
The highways quiet scars across the land.
C Fm
People lie, eyes closed, no longer dreaming,
G Am Em
The earth dies screaming.
C Fm
Like scattered pebbles, cars lie silent waiting,
G Am Em
Oilless engines seized by dirt and sand.
C Fm
Bodies hanging limp, no longer bleeding,
G Am Em
The earth dies screaming.
C
The earth dies screaming
Fm
The earth dies screaming
G Am Em
Your country needs you, lets strike up the band.
C
The earth dies screaming
Fm
The earth dies screaming
G Am Em
Despite all odds we must defend our land.
C Fm
Half eaten meals lie rotting on the tables,
G Am Em
Money clutched within a boney hand.
C Fm
Shutters down, the banks are not receiving,
G Am Em
The earth dies screaming
