Am                      G                                  F
   A proud people came,    well they were looking for their promised land

Drums only   x2
 
They were standing on the shore one day, saw the white sails in the sun
                                       G                 F
Wasn’t long before they felt the sting, white man, white law, white gun
D                                     E  F                  (stop)
   Don’t tell me that it’s justified.       Cause somewhere,      someone lied

And now you’re standing on    solid rock, standing on    sacred ground
       G   Am                         G                   F            G    Am
Living on      borrowed time, and the winds of change are blowing down the line
                        G         F
solid rock, standing on    sacred ground
       G   Am                         G                   F            G    Am
Living on      borrowed time, and the winds of change are blowing down the line
               G         F
solid rock, whoa, sacred ground
       G   Am                         G                   F
Living on      borrowed time, and the winds of change are blowing down the line

Took me a while,, but if you search for a recent acoustic version SHane Howard Solid Rock you get a closer look at how he does it acoustically and its really quite neat.. he doesn't play the full Am pattern up the neck ,, just two middle fingers. Keep in mind he has another guitarist or two filling it out on stage (and no doubt the studio). His Maton guitar (and voice) are magnificent.
