E Em/G F#m/A E
Mother earth
They have made so many scars upon your
Em/G F#m/A E Em/G
Face
F#m/A E
The beauty you once had
Em/G F#m/A E Em/G F#m/A E
can never be replaced
Em/G F#m/A E
Long for wild earth
Em/G
You were pounted by the meters
F#m/A E
from the sky
Em/G F#m/A E Em/G F#m/A E
But you did no die
[Verse 2]
Em/G
And now the ones that you have loved
F#m/A E Em/G F#m/A
Are taking you for granted
E Em/G
Here they're so enchanted
F#m/A E Em/G F#m/A
By the progress they have made
E Em/G
They never stop to think
F#m/A E
Just how much that you can take

Mother earth
F#m/A E Em/G F#m/A E
Take us back to when the proud ones lived
Em/G F#m/A E
They only took what you would give
Em/G F#m/A E
Mother earth
Em/G F#m/A E
Tonight before I lay my body down
Em/G F#m/A E Em/G F#m/A E
I'll pray to the Lord that a way can be found
Em/G F#m/A E
And if bad goes to worse
Em/G F#m/A E Em/G F#m/A E
The Lord help me try to do my best
Em/G F#m/A E
Until once again, mother earth
Em/G F#m/A E
You hold me
Em/G F#m/A E
You hold me
Em/G F#m/A E
You hold us
Em/G F#m/A E
to your breast
