Just give me the warm power of the sun

Give me the spirit of living things
C C 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
as they return to clay.
G G 
 
Just give me the restless

power of the wind

Bm Bm 
 
But please take all of your atomic

D D 
 
poison power away.

Verse 2
G G 
 
Everybody needs some
Bm Bm 
 
power I'm told
To shield them from the

Some may see a way to take control
C C 
 
G G 
 
when it's bought and sold.

Verse 3
D D 
 
G G 
 
Bm Bm 
 
I know that lives are at stake
Em Em 
 
Yours and mine and our
descendants in time.

A A 
 
so much to  lose

Everyone of us has to choose.

[Chorus]
G G 
 
Bm Bm 
 
We are only now beginning to see

How delicate the balance of

nature can be
Am Am 
 
The limits of her ways have been defined
C C 
 
And we've crossed that line.
G G 
 

Verse 5
D D 
 
G G 
 
Some don't even care
Bm Bm 
 
or know that we'll pay
Em Em 
 
But we have seen the face of
death in our day.
Am Am 
 
There's so little time to change our ways
C C 
 
If only we together can say
