A          F#m         E 
Oh people, look around you

The signs are everywhere 
       D                A   G          D 
You've left it for somebody other than you 
   E             F#m 
To be the one to care

       A                F#m 
You're lost inside your houses

There's no time to find you now 
      A                         E 
Your walls are burning and your towers are turning 
    F#m                   D                       A    E

    A                     F#m 
The road is filled with homeless souls

Every woman, child and man 
    D        A    G              D 
Who have no idea where they will go 
            E                F#m 
But they'll help you if they can

Now everyone must have some thought 
                D                  B7 
That's going to pull them through somehow 
        A                E 
Oh the fires are raging hotter and hotter 
        F#m                              D                       A 
But the sisters of the sun are going to rock me on the water now

E               D 
Rock me on the water 
                A         E       D 
Sister will you soothe my fevered brow

     D                        A 
It's there your hope must lie 
           D        A 
There's a sea bird above you 
G          D               E           F#m 
Gliding in one place like Jesus in the sky

   A               F#m 
We all must do the best we can 
    D                      B7 
And hang on to that Gospel plow 
         A                         E 
When my life is over, I'm going to stand before the Father 
         F#m                            D                        A

Oh rock me on the water, and maybe I'll remember 
D                   A 
Maybe I'll remember how 
E              D 
Rock me on the water 
       A       E       D 
Oh the wind is with me now 
   A    E         F#m E 
So rock me on the water 
     B7                   D          A 
I'll get down to the sea somehow oh ye
