Protect And Survive Chords

G      D
The red hot sun burns up the hill
 
    EmD
The winter's bride, the summer's king
 
  Em    C
I tramp these acres and I feel
 
Am    D
Once upon a time
 
GD
And then it seemed that everything
 
    EmD
You saw and touched and felt was real
 
    Em   C
You turned the tap and you turned 

the wheel
 
Am  D
Breathing free
 
 
Now you search the open evening sky
Trace the memory in your eyes
For the prophet's hard rain 
and the deluge
Lie in tears around your door
Once there were trees and livestock here
A mother's love, the warnings clear
But you chose to turn away from fear
Breathing free
 
Now there's a faceless cross 

on a distant hill
A wasted voice, a silent scream
Where the lovers love 

and the dreamers dream
You stand and dream alone
You took your sacrifice 

to the gods of war
Traded your children's lives 

for a mess of gold
And you beat your ploughshares into swords
Breathing free
 
 
D  G
Once in a lifetime
 
    C
You live and love
 
  G
Once in a lifetime
 
    D
You die
 
  G
Once in a moment
 
    C
The sun goes down
