C        G/B              Em
From the mountains to the sun
C        G/B       Em
Life has only just begun
G           Bm
We wed this land and pledged
    D                  Esus
Our souls to meet it's end
 
C        G/B       Em
Life has only just begun
C       G/B             Em
Here my people roam the earth
C       G/B           Em
In the kingdom of our birth
G         Bm              D                Esus
Where the dust of all our horses hides the sun
C       G/B          Em            D sus4 sus2 D
We are mighty on the earth, on the earth
 
Dm
You have come to move me
Bb                      Em
Take me from my ancient home
                   Bm
Land of my fathers I can't leave you now
C
We will share it with you
D      Bm                    C
No man owns this earth we're on
 
Em   Gm
 
Dm
Now the wheels are rolling
Bb                        Em
Hear the howling winds of war
                   Bm
It's my destiny to fight and die
C
But is there no solution
D      Bm            C                 Em
Can we find no other way, Lord, let me stay
 
          D       Dsus2
Under the endless sky
        D     Dsus2
And the earth below
F#7        Bm      F#m
Here I was born to live
           Dm    Am     Bb   C
And I will never go, oh no 
 
       Dm        C
But we cannot endure
         Dm            G
Like the earth and the mountains
        Dm          C
Life is not ours to keep
      Dm         G
For a new sun is rising
 
Gm  |  C  |  Gm  |  C  |

into long instrumental section
 
C          G/B              Em
Soon these days shall pass away
C       G/B             Em
For our freedom we must pay
 
G        D                                 Esus
All our words and deeds are carried on the wind
C      G/B               Em               Bb
In the ground our bodies lay, here we'll stay
 
Outro:
(hopefully this makes sense, 3 bars 4/4, 2 bars 3/4 and another
4/4 bar, then repeat. ending on Bb at the last repeat. The slash
chords are just following the bass line)
