VERSE 1

               D
Wouldn't it be great to see the 
African plains
Before they lay them to waste and 
         G
only the bones remain
F#m             G
Wouldn't it be poetry to shoot holes
 in the poachers we see
                 F#m
With an elephant gun

D        Em          D
  Men in helicopters fly
         G                      F#m
Shooting rhinos from out of the sky
                            D      
Why do we always assume the planet 
           G
is ours to ruin
F#m     G
Oh what legacy we're leaving behind

What a legacy

               D
Wouldn't it be something for the men
 killing dolphin
To be caught up by their necks in 
             G
their greedy fishing nets
                            F#m 
Wouldn't it be irony if the tuna 
      G
fish canneries
                      F#m
Were to fall into the sea

  The dolphins and the whales

still left alive

Cry to the stars in the deep blue 
F#m
night
There's nowhere to hide, the people 
   D                 G
on earth will not be denied
D      G            F#m     G
What a legacy we're leaving behind
F#m    G
What a legacy

               D
Wouldn't it be odd if there really 
was a God
And He looked down on earth and saw 
           G
what we've done to her
F#m            G          F#m   
Wouldn't it be just if He pulled
     G
 the plug on us
                  F#m
And took away the sun
