B6 Emaj7
Seems the wisdom of man hasn't got much wiser
BM6 Amaj7
Than the very beginning of our time
B6 Emaj7
Agree or war has been our way of compromising
D6 Gmaj7 F#7 Bmaj7
Let live and love has become our biggest lie
B6 Emaj7
Seems to me that fools are even more foolish
B6 Amaj7
Thinking of themselves and nobody else
B6 Emaj7
But then if asked for poor will riches be replenished
D6 Gmaj7 F#7
They say boot straps must be pulled up by themselves
Bmaj7
Feeding off the love of the land
Dmaj7 Emaj7
Leaving much to be desired
Bmaj7
Living off the love of the Lord
Dmaj7 Emaj7
While the price for life is higher
Db/F Bbm7
Isn't love to be admired
Eb7 Abm7
Has the good in man expired
Cmaj7 G7 Gmaj7/D F#7 B6
Stealing all the love and the beauty from the land
B6 Emaj7
I awake each morning to the birds a-singing
B6 Amaj7
Singing out to God to come and save his own
B6 Emaj7
But when throughout the world the cry of love is ringing
Dmaj7 Gmaj7 F#7 Bmaj7
Is then when He'll stop to hear our song
B6 Emaj7
Did you know that when you feel the earth a-shaken
B6 Amaj7
It's only mother nature with a crying heart
B6 Emaj7
You see we have taken from her for so many ages
Dmaj7 Gmaj7 F#7 B6
Will there be a time when taking stops and giving starts
Bmaj7
'Cause we're feeding off the love of the land
Dmaj7 Emaj7
Leaving much to be desired
Bmaj7
Living off the love of the Lord
Dmaj7 Emaj7
While the price for life is higher
Db/F Bbm7
Isn't love to be admired
Eb7 Abm7
Has the good in man expired
Cmaj7 G7 Gmaj7/D F#7 B6
Stealing all the love and the beauty from the land
Bmaj7
Yes we are feeding off the love of the land
Dmaj7 Emaj7
Never hearing what He's saying
Bmaj7
Living off the love of the Lord
Dmaj7 Emaj7
Never feeling what you're praying
Db/F Bbm7
Never praising Him for beauty
Eb7 Abm7
Only praying God please give me
Cmaj7 G7 Gmaj7/D F#7 B6
Stealing all the love and the beauty from the land
Cmaj7 G7 Gmaj7/D F#7 B6
Stealing all the love and the beauty from His land
