Verse 1
Em
1979,
a Georgia barrier island
A kid with a face stained with peach
Where wild horses run over the dunes
I, too, run feral down the beach
C

We three on holiday in clothes of light

Am
Em
The distances that can live
in a space so close
Live oak casting shadows on the sand
G

long ago in a polaroid blur.
brightened in the winter.

Passions of youth come
calling so loud,
Am
Em
Willingly our bodies answer.
So much of it now I struggle to recall,
Am
Em
er quite recover.
G
D
Like the seawall falling in the bay

Em
Now decades on,
the world's gone craven mad
The end of history never arrived
Just when it seemed
that democracy would chant eternal
C
Em
Now in the last gasps of the old republics
C
Em
A culture splitting at the seams
The recent past
is like those faded photographs
Am

We cling, hopefully,
The butternut boys
Em
C
The John Wayne go -it -alone
G

A na tion built on the lashing bones
We only see what's right

D
The threat is very much alive
The slow eroding

of the ties that bind
G

Like the seawall falling in the bay
