Guitar chords with lyrics

Verse 1:
G        D/F# Em
Oh people,    look around you
C             G
The signs are everywhere
       C           G        F          C
You've left it for somebody other than you
   D             Em
To be the one to care
       G           D/F# Em
You're lost inside your houses
           C            C9   A  G/B A/C#
There's no time to find you now
     G/D                        D
Your walls are burning and your towers are turning
             Em                        C                       G     C/D G/D C/D D
I'm going to leave you here and try to get down to the sea somehow

Verse 2:
    G              D/F# Em
The road is filled with homeless souls
      C                    D/F# G
Every woman, child and man
    C       G    F               C
Who have no idea where they will go
            D                Em
But they'll help you if they can
    G             Em
Now everyone must have some thought
                C                     A  G/B A/C#
That's going to pull them through somehow
         G/D              D
Well the fires are raging hotter and hotter
        Em                             C                              G
But the sisters of the sun are going to rock me on the water now

D              C

Sister will you soothe my fevered brow
G       D/F#   Em    D
Rock me on the water

I'll get down to the sea somehow

Oh people,     look among you
     C                    G
It's there your hope must lie
          C          G
There's a sea bird above you
F              C          D              Em
Gliding in one place like Jesus in the sky
   G               Em
We all must do the best we can
              C                 A  G/B A/C#
And then hang on to that Gospel plow
        G/D                        D
When my life is over, I'm going to stand before the Father
        Em                             C                           G

Sister will you soothe my fevered brow
G         D/F# Em   D   A           G/B   A/C#
Rock me on the water, maybe I'll remember
C                   G
Maybe I'll remember how
D              C     D
Rock me on the water
    G       D       C    D
The wind is with me now
   G       D/F#   Em   D
So rock me on the water

I'll get down to the sea somehow  (hoo hoo hoo)
