Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Restless  is dawn as it wanders  the farm  house
 A new  day awaits though he’s worked  through the night
 Patiently  planting his thoughts  on the pages
 Under  the mumble of kerosene  light
Off  to the West you can feel  it coming
 A thick,  steel vein for a river  of power
 Carelessly  turning the earth  into wasteland
 As thousands  of years disappear  in an hour
   Hold  your ground  on the wrong side  of the plough
   They’re closer  now to a cold,  black, broken line
   Hold  your ground  when they come to  cut you down
   They’re closer  now to the rock  that breaks the tines
 Can’t  see what you do from back  in the boardroom
 Faceless  equations of profit  and cost
 They wave  you away like a fly  on the radar
 But keep  coming back and you’ll throw  them off course
   Though it’s always  been  this way
  Doesn’t mean  that it’s  your fate
  But you know  it takes  the
  Strength  of heart and mind
  And the faith  someday the world  will see  your side
  Nothing  is lost if you give  yourself wholly
  Nothing  is gained if you keep  it inside

R[Bm]estless is dawn as it w[A]anders the f[E]arm house
A [Bm]new day awaits though he’s w[A]orked through the [E]night
P[Bm]atiently planting his t[A]houghts on the p[E]ages
U[Bm]nder the mumble of k[A]erosene l[E]ight [Esus4]        [E]

[Bm]Off to the West you can f[A]eel it c[E]oming
A [Bm]thick, steel vein for a r[A]iver of p[E]ower
C[Bm]arelessly turning the e[A]arth into w[E]asteland
As t[Bm]housands of years disap[A]pear in an h[E]our [Esus4]        [E]

 [Bm]  Ho[D]ld your gro[A]und on the wrong si[E]de of the plough
 [Bm]  They’re clo[D]ser now to a c[A]old, black, broken l[E]ine
 [Bm]  Ho[D]ld your gro[A]und when they come t[E]o cut you down
 [Bm]  They’re clo[D]ser now to the r[A]ock that breaks the t[E]ines

C[Bm]an’t see what you do from b[A]ack in the b[E]oardroom
F[Bm]aceless equations of pr[A]ofit and c[E]ost
They [Bm]wave you away like a [A]fly on the r[E]adar
But k[Bm]eep coming back and you’ll t[A]hrow them off c[E]ourse [Esus4]        [E]

 [A]  Though it’s [B]always b[E]een this w[A]ay
   Doesn’t m[B]ean that i[E]t’s your f[A]ate
   But you k[B]now it t[E]akes the
   Str[D]ength of heart and m[A]ind  [D]       [A]
   And the f[D]aith someday the w[Asus4]orld will se[A]e your si[E]de  [Esus4]         [E]
   N[Bm]othing is lost if you g[A]ive yourself w[E]holly
   N[Bm]othing is gained if you k[A]eep it ins[E]ide
