Save The Land Lyrics And Chords

Save the land lyrics by The Clancy Brothers
4/4 Lyrics and chords fit the Clancy Brothers & Louis Killen on their album ‚Save The Land’ 1972.

(D)Looking 'round the land, that (F#m)once belonged to him.

The (G)looking wasn't (D)easy, there was (G)nothing there but (D)sin

He cried out to the heavens, (F#m)nearly broke his heart.

Oh (G)look at what they've (D)done, torn my (G)land a(D)part.

 

Chorus

Oh (G)Lord save the (D)land, Oh (G)Lord save my (F#m)land,

Oh (G)Lord save the (D)land, and (G)all your (A)children, (D)too.

 

(D)See them fighting, (F#m)dying in the streets,

See (G)all your (D)little babies, with (G)nothing more to (D)eat

Oh Lord shine a light, (F#m)shine a light on me,

I (G)know it isn't (D)easy, that's the (G)way it's got to (D)be.

 

Chorus

 

What (D)happened to the forest, (F#m)where the red deer run,

(G)Why is a family (D)crying, for their (G)one and only (D)son,

The cruel black smoke is rising, though (F#m)sun is shining through.

Now (G)cry beloved (D)country, what are we (G)going to (D)do?

 

Chorus twice

Chorus quickly fading
