carried on,
Yes we just carried on

[Verse 7]
Now choppers [Cm]strafe the su

[Cm]And people w[Bb]onder [F]why[G]
Chopping down [C]tons of trees
Got [Bb]seas of print not a [F]soul can read say

[Verse 8]
[G]Why do I drown you [C]build brick boxes
[Bb]One by one now they [A]block [Am]my sun[G]
But it's metal on metal
It's the dance of TV
If Christ were [Cm]here he'd cam

[Verse 9]
[Bb]era check
[F]He'd cry[G] so [Gm]loud[Cm]
[Bb]the planes would [F]stop
He'd [G]cry [Gm]so lo[Cm]ud the e[Bb]arth would shake

[Verse 13]
[C]But we killed all our fir[G]stborn
And we slashed and [F]we burned
And we sold off the paddock[Am]s
And we raped and we [C]gouged
On the wings of [G]a six-pack
Will Will we [Em]ever learn?
