A             D                  E     DBeen having a hard time trying to justify
A           D              E         DThe clouds arising from the cars we drive
A                D                 E                 DAnd a little too easy seems just a little too hard today

A C# F#m E D

A   C#          F#m        E       DThe earth is my body, it's been poisoned with lead and junk food and toxic waste
A   C#        F#m            E            DThe sky is my mind it's been clouded with cigarettes and fluorocarbons and petroleum distillates
A   C#         F#m              E           DThe water's my heart, it's been broken with booze and drugs and shooting up paste
A   C#        F#m          E        D                                     A C# F#m E DThe sun is my spirit, it belongs to all of us, I guess we're all one sick race

        A    C#     F#m   E               DAnd the dissolution of possession and the integration of humanity
A           C#      F#m     E      DShall bring forth a sharing of our responsibility
        A C# F#m E DFor our lives
        A C# F#m E DAnd our earth
        A C# F#m E DFor our lives
        A C# F#m E D AAnd our earth
