            G       B        G 
There's a shadow across the land 
           G            B                G 
There's a hatred and a hunger, and it's hard to understand 
        D                Dm         G 
How we fell so far from where we began 

                   B          G 
There's a stumble now in our step 
                       B                G 
There's blood in the phlegm, there's a lump in the breast 
            D       Dm               G 
There's a smell of sickness on our breath 

                      B           G 
There's a dread deep down in our bones 
              B          G 
Something is finished, abandon your homes 
        D            Dm       G 
Strike out into the great unknown 

                      B                G 
But there are no new continents to be found 
                      B        G 
No new frontiers to cross, no gold in the ground 
               D    Dm             G 
Stay with the boats -- lest ye be drowned

           Bb          Eb          Bb 
There are stories now worth being told 
          Bb            Eb        Bb 
There are victories to grasp more valuable than gold 
             Gm              Eb                 Bb 
And we will speak of to our children when we're old 

                       Eb          Bb 
There are battles now worth being fought 
                         Eb         Bb 
There are lessons to be learned and later to be taught 
           Gm              Eb                 Bb 
There are soldiers on the field who can't be bought 

                  Eb          Bb 
There's a clarity now in our view 
                     Eb                 Bb 
From the prow we see far, all that's is old now is new 
         Gm            Eb          Bb 
Free at last, we know what we must do 

              Eb          Bb 
There is hope now in the wind 
                          Eb         Bb 
And the millions who are marching demanding we be kind 
         Gm            Eb               Bb 
From the new lands the lifeboats might find
