[Chorus]
G            Am7
One blue sky above us

D7                        G     G/B G/A
One ocean lapping all our shore

E7           Am7
One earth so green and round

D7                G
Who could ask for more

G           Am7
And because I love you

D7                    G   G/B G/A
I'll give it one more try

E7         Am7
To show my rainbow race

D7               G
It's too soon to die
[Verse 1]
G                             Am Ammaj7
Some folks want to be like an ostrich

Am7        D7           G      G/B G/A
bury their heads in the sands

E7             Am                 D7                        G
Some hope that plastic dreams can unclench all those greedy hands

G                     Am   Ammaj7
Some hope to take the easy way

Am7     D7                     G          G/B G/A
poisons bombs they we think we need them

E7                                    Am
Don't you know you can't kill all the unbeliver's

D7                     G
There's no shortcut to freedom
[Chorus]
G            Am7
One blue sky above us

D7                        G     G/B G/A
One ocean lapping all our shore

E7           Am7
One earth so green and round

D7                G
Who could ask for more

G           Am7
And because I love you

D7                    G   G/B G/A
I'll give it one more try

E7         Am7
To show my rainbow race

D7               G
It's too soon to die
[Verse 2]
G                               Am   Ammaj7
Go tell, go tell all the little children

   Am7          D7                 G    G/B G/A
Go tell all the mothers and fathers too

E7                          Am
Now it's our last chance to learn to share

            D7              G
What's been given to me and you.
[Chorus]
G            Am7
One blue sky above us

D7                        G      G/B G/A
One ocean lapping all our shore

E7           Am7
One earth so green and round

D7                G
Who could ask for more

G           Am7
And because I love you

D7                    G   G/B G/A
I'll give it one more try

E7         Am7        D7        G
