[Dm] [G] [F]
[C]
Just give me the warm power of [Em] the sun
Give me the [Am] steady flow of the [C]
waterfall
Give [Dm] me the spirit of living [G] things as they return to [C] play
Give me the [C] restless power of the [Em]
wind
Give me [Am] the comforting glow of [C] the wood fire
But [Dm] please take all [Em] your atomic [F]
poison [G] power [C] away
Everybody needs some power [Em] I'm told
Shield them [Am] from the darkness and [C] the cold
Some [Dm] may see a way to take [G] control
When it's bought [C] and sold
[F]
I [C] know that lives are [Em]
instinct
Yours and [Am] mine, our descendants [Em] in time
So [Dm] much to gain and so much [D] to lose
[F] Every one of us has to choose
Just give me [C] the warm power of the [Bm] sun
[Am] Give me the steady flow [C] of the waterfall
Give me the [Dm] spirit of living [G]
