_ _ [Em] _ [F] _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ world.
Today, _ when I [G] look around
_ [F] in the world, what [C] do I see?
[Em] I see _ [F] footprints that man _ _ [C] _ _ while
[G] walking through time.
_ [Em] [F] I see
footprints of our ambitions,
figments of our _ imaginations.
And I [C] ask myself, when [G] will it
end?
When [C] will it end?
It is [G] plain to see, _ [Em] [F] universally
this land is not bountiful [C] as
it was, _ simply because [G] in his
quest [F] for success, nothing stands
[C] in man's way.
_ [Em] And dry, soon the [F] birds won't fly,
the mountains will be no [C] lie.
_ _ And when I [G] really [F] think of it,
I just [C] wonder why, _ [G] oh why.
_ _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ I [F] _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ see charity [G]
deployed,
_ [F] equal rights totally [C]
ignored,
_ _ [Em] wisdom and _ [F]
ingenuity, working [C] in
accord, simply [G] to afford _ [Em] [F] such
inventions as thermonuclear
warfare and environmental
warfare.
_ And I [C] wonder now, where
[G] do we go _ [C] from here?
Profits
[G] everywhere, [Em] gaze [F] upon the horizon
and declare that [C] judgment will
come.
And the savage hands [G] of
[F] unscrupulous men defile [C] everything
passed by.
Time is [Em] running out,
as we [F] eat and drink species at
the brink of [C] being extinct.
_ [G] And I
think no one [F] can deny that the
price of [C] progress is high.
[G] Rest, _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ I see, _ [G] consciousness abates,
_ [Em] [F] as today we live [C]
recklessly.
_ _ [Em] Money, make [F] egos inflate, and
the world [C] thereby create a
[G] turbulent state.
[F] I see a struggle
between the sexes, new hang-ups
and old complexes.
_ Now the
[C] question is, _ [G] right in context,
_ [C] what shall be next?
_ [G] Ready seen,
[Em] this will [F] have come divided
between race, colour, [C] creed and
class.
And some of the things
[G] this [F] scripture predicts should
fully [C] come to pass.
Soil [Em] that
wouldn't be here, children [F] making
children to be a part of this
[C] growing mass.
_ And I [G] ask, if [F] this
is progress, how [C] long will it last?
