Earth Dies Screaming

C              Fm
A warm dry wind is all that breaks 
the silence,
G            Am                 
The highways quiet scars across the 
Em
land.
C              Fm
People lie, eyes closed, no longer 
dreaming,
G      Am  Em
The earth dies screaming.

C                       Fm
Like scattered pebbles, cars lie 
silent waiting,
G          Am                    
Oilless engines seized by dirt and 
Em
sand.

C              Fm
Bodies hanging limp, no longer

The earth dies screaming
G            Am                  
Despite all odds we must defend

our land.

Half eaten meals lie rotting on the 
tables,
G            Am         Em
Money clutched within a boney hand.
C                Fm
Shutters down, the banks are not 
receiving,
G       Am Em
The earth dies screaming
