Chords

D [Verse 1]
D
Though half of life is gone for good

A
And we haven't acted as we should

G                  D
You feel it in your heart of wood

                      A
That this is far from over
[Verse 2]
D
Shorelines gone and maps destroyed

A
Livelihoods dissolved and void

G             D
Entire languages unheard

                        A
And still it’s far from over
[Verse 3]
   G                   D
Be sure you teach your kids to swim

    C            G
And navigate by stars above

    C                  G
The fate of landlocked life is grim

     D                      A
When you ignore our will to love
[Verse 4]
D
When all that's left is sea and sun

A
A lonely voice says “All's not done”

G                              D
Its your child who will be the one

                       A
To sing it’s far from over
[Verse 5]
D
A traveller upon the sea

A
Sings “It's a sailor's life for me”

  G             D
I now embrace eternity

                     A
For this is far from over
[Verse 6]
G                   D
You never know what she will find

      C                G
When we are dead and she is sailing

     C                      G
Nor what new thoughts will cross her mind

   D                 A
As wind blows in her hair
[Break] D A G D A [Verse 7]
       D
Don't worry if all life is gone

     A
The rocks and sea will still roll on

    G                  D
And new wild creatures will be born

                      A
Yes, this is far from over

     G                      A
The whole world's far from over
