Am G E
I'm at home where my coat's hanging, I'm a shepherd of raising sun
Am G E
I believe and trust in my land, I control, I am in charge of

Am Bb
Yesterday I saw a light, moving fast across the sky
G
Now I see a glow, left and right, stars are falling down tonight, I fear...
Am Bb
And the pouring rain, eating my green grass, leaving a stain
G
Never healing back to be the same
[SOLO OMITTED]
[BRIDGE 2]
Am F G
Now tell me who won here tonight
F G
The price, of winning worthless fight
F G
We'll make the same mistakes again
F G
Unless, this is truly the end
[CHORUS]
Am F G C
Heat in the center, destruction preventer
