Start Jamming...
[A] Now Julian, this song has a very [F#m] strong environmental message.
Tell us why you [Em] wrote it.
Well, it seems that the world, in my view, the world has a bit of a [E] problem because of us, you know, [G] and I think we need to do something about [A] it.
Well, let's [F#] hear the song.
It's Julian [A] Lennon at ten with [E] Saltwater.
We are the rock and roll
Around the golden sun
We are a billion [A] children rolled into one
[Am]
So when I hear about [E] a hole in the sky
[C#m] [C]
[D] Saltwater wells in my [E] eyes
We climb the highest mountain
We'll make the desert blue
We're so ingenious we [A] can walk on the moon
[Am]
But when I hear about [E] the forests have [C#m] died
[C]
[D] Saltwater wells in my [E] eyes
I have lived [A] for love
But now that's not enough
For [C#m] the world [E] and love [C#m] is dying
[A] And I will [C#m] be [E] crying
Time is not [A] a friend
[E] We're out [A] of time
And [C#m] it's [B] slowly [A] [E] passing [D#] by
[A#] But [F#m]
before I rise
[E] We like the deepest ocean
Send photographs to Mars
We're so enchanted by [A] how clever we are
[Am] Why should [E] one [Am] baby feel [E] so hungry?
She [C#m] cried
[C] Saltwater [D] wells in my [E] eyes
I
[C#] [Bm] [A] [Am]
[E] [C#m] [C]
[D] [E]
have lived [A] for love
[E] Now that's not [A] enough
For [C#] the world [G#m] and love [C#m] is dying
[A] And now I'm [E] crying
Time is not [A] a friend
[B] We're out [A] of time
And [C#m] it's [B] slowly [A] [E] passing [E] by
But [F#m]
before [A] I rise
[E] We are a rock revolving around the golden sun
We are [G#] a billion [E] children [A] rolled into one
[Am] But when [E] I think of [F#] me [E] the day that I [C#m] die
[C] Saltwater [D] wells in my [E] eyes
[C] [D] [E]
