Intro: D  C  G   D  C  G   C  G  C  D 

     D      C       G 
On a sleepy endless ocean 
         D     C        G 
When the world lay in a dream 
          C      G      C          G       
There was rhythm in the splash and roll 
    Am             C 
But not a voice to sing 
       D         C      G 
So the moon fell on the breakers 
        D       C          G 
And the morning warmed the waves 
       C      G        C        G       
'Til a single cell did jump and hum 
    Am               D 
For joy as though to say 


           G 
This is my home 
           C    G       
This is my only home 
            C           Em                 D 
This is the only sacred ground that I have ever known 
             G 
And should I stray 
       C    D      Em     
In the dark night alone 
C       G       Em     C      D       G 
Rock me Goddess in the gentle arms of Eden 


         D         C          G 
Then the day shone bright and rounder 
         D          C    G 
'Til the one turned into two 
        C     G      C        G       
And the two into ten thousand things 
    Am              C 
And old things into new 
    D       C      G 
And on some virgin beach head 
    D        C       G 
One lonesome critter crawled 
       C      G         C       G       
And he looked about and shouted out 
       Am              D 
In his most astonished drawl 


           G 
This is my home 
           C    G       
This is my only home 
            C           Em                 D 
This is the only sacred ground that I have ever known 
             G 
And should I stray 
       C    D      Em     
In the dark night alone 
C       G       Em     C      D       G 
Rock me Goddess in the gentle arms of Eden

     D       C       G 
Then all the sky was buzzing 
        D          C      G 
And the ground was carpet green 
        C    G        C      G       
And the wary children of the woods 
     Am           C 
Went dancing in between 
        D      C      G 
And the people sang rejoicing 
         D           C         G 
When the fields were glad with grain 
     C       G   C        G       
This song of celebration  
           Am            D 
From their cities on the plain 

 
           G 
This is my home 
           C    G       
This is my only home 
            C           Em                 D 
This is the only sacred ground that I have ever known 
             G 
And should I stray 
       C    D      Em     
In the dark night alone 
C       G       Em     C      D       G 
Rock me Goddess in the gentle arms of Eden 


            D     C          G 
Now there's smoke across the harbour 
            D         C      G 
And there's factories on the shore 
        C        G        C         G       
And the world is ill with greed and will 
    Am            C 
And enterprise of war 
    D      C      G 
But I will lay my burdens 
       D      C       G 
In the cradle of your grace 
        C       G       C       G       
And the shining beaches of your love 
        Am            D 
And the sea of your embrace 


           G 
This is my home 
           C    G       
This is my only home 
            C           Em                 D 
This is the only sacred ground that I have ever known 
             G 
And should I stray 
       C    D      Em     
In the dark night alone 
C       G       Em     C      D       G 
Rock me Goddess in the gentle arms of Eden 
C       G       Em     C      D       G 
Rock me Goddess in the gentle arms of Eden
