Foreign Sand

 G                   Em
Here we go, ain't it grand
                          C
Here we stand on foreign sand
                D
And we're not alone

[Verse]

G           D                 Em
 Why do we fear what we don't understand
                        C      D            G
Can't we reach out our hand to try just say 'hello'
B                 C                D                Em  Bm       Em    B
 Try to plant a seed, fulfill the need to make it grow, just say hello
C                 D                    G          D       Em       D
 And when you're far from home try to learn from all you see
     C                  D              G
Your eyes will tell you everything you need

 G          D                         Em
Why do we dread what we really don't know
              C                    D
Come not as concubine, come not as foe
            G
Come with intentions clearly shown
B                 C                 D             Em   Bm         Em     B
 Try to plant a seed, fulfill the need to make it grow   just say hello
C                   D                    G         D          Em  D
 And though you're far from home try to learn from all you see
      C                                 D                    G
Your mind will tell you everything you need, everything you need

[Chorus]

 G                   Em
Here we go ain't it grand
                          C
Here we stand on foreign sand
                D
And we're not alone

G       B7               Em
  Red, yellow, black and white
                        C                 D
Every man stand in the light, stand not alone


[Bridge]

E7                                      Am                      F
 It's not a lie, it's not a sham we play for keeps, it's not a scam
      G                                                      E7
No bigotry, we're hand in hand, it ain't a cinch, we make a stand
             Am               Bb   C
We learn to live on foreign sand
            D    E
Just say hello


[Verse]

 G             D                       Em
Why do we despise when we can't even speak
                       C
We keep on spreading lies
                D                      G
As far as we know it's the only way to be
B                 C                 D               Em   Bm            Em     B
 Try to plant a seed, fulfill the need to make it grow,     just say hello

 And though you're far from home try to learn what you could be
     F                   G              C
Your heart will tell you everything you need

C   Am

                  F              G               C   G  Am

           F              G
Ain't it grand   here we stand
             C   G   Am
On foreign sand
             F     G
Together we stand
            C    G   Am
On foreign sand
             F    Dm          G
Together we stand,  here we stand
            C
On foreign sand
