G
Born to open for
Mankind nature's door
E7 Am
A life known by a few
F
And those who knew that shared
Am Am7
Their knowledge fewer cared
F#7 Bm7
About what plants could do
Fmaj7 E7 D#
For most felt it was mad to conceive
Cm D7 G
That plants thought, felt, and moved quite like we
Fmaj7 E7 D#7 Cm
But with instruments Bose would devise
D Em B7
Would take Science itself by a surprise, so
[Chorus]
Em Bm7
On we go to where who knows
C G D B
To a place where there's still non-believers
Em Bm7
What will it take for heaven's sake
C B7 E7
For those who find what's real too hard to believe in
C D G Dm
It's that same old story again
[Verse 2]
G
Born of slaves who died
Too soon to realize
E Am
The need his life would be
F
Selflessy he gave
Am Am7
His wisdom to a way
F#7 Bm7
Where first no minds would see
Fmaj7 E7 D#7 Cm
He said if farm land was to be rich
D7 G
We must plant crops to replenish it
Fmaj7 E7 D#7 Cm7
But it took him persuasion and tests
D Em B
To convince them Carver's way was best, so
[Chorus]
Em Bm7
On we go to where who knows
C G D B
To a place where there's still non-believers
Em Bm7
What will it take for heaven's sake
C B7 E7
For those who find what's real too hard to believe in
C D G Dm
It's that same old story again
