Intro  F  Bb  F  Bb  F  Bb  C  C7  F  Bb  F  Bb


    F            Am          Bb      F
The Earth is our mother just turning around
         Am            F         C          C7
With her trees in the forest and roots underground
    F      Am             Bb          F
Our father above us who’s high as the wind
Bb         F       C       C7  F
Paint us a rainbow without any end

                  Am         Bb            F
As the river runs freely the mountain does rise
       Am            Dm          C           C7
Let me touch with my fingers and see with my eyes
       Bb                       F               C    C7
In the hearts of the children a pure love still grows
       Bb             F           Bb             F
Like a bright star in heaven that lights our way home
         Gm          C         C7  F     Bb F Bb
Like the flower that shattered the stone


F             Am        Bb          F
Sparrows find freedom beholding the Sun
       Am       Dm           C             C7
In the infinite beauty we’re all joined in one
  F         Am            Bb          F
I reach out before me and look to the sky
      Bb           F           C         C7   F
Did I hear someone whisper did something pass by


                  Am         Bb            F
As the river runs freely the mountain does rise
       Am            Dm          F           C
Let me touch with my fingers and see with my eyes
       Bb                       F               C    C7
In the hearts of the children a pure love still grows
       Gm             F           Bb             F
Like a bright star in heaven that lights our way home
         Gm          C         C7  F     Bb  F  Bb
Like the flower that shattered the stone
                      F       Bb                 F
Like a bright star in heaven that lights our way home
         Bb          C         C7  F     Bb F Bb F Bb F
Like the flower that shattered the stone....
