An original song by Peri Urban. Download here http://www.periurban.com/oncetherewas... G G7 C7 You are /filled up with the /ghostly light of /angels G G7 C And the /storm /rages out/side The flood comes running down the valley Too late you see there's nowhere you can hide F C G G7 You /turn to meet your /maker, and find /empty sp/ace F C G C Where /once there was a /garden in some /other /place G C All that's there is desolation, no saving grace The villages have burned, and still they burn There's smoke under clouds, over the fields of corn No-one is left to tend the land The work is done, the people all have gone Where are they now, please understand We didn't leave you, we love you still But time is all we have to share Come seek our houses that we built upon the hill Journey back to find us there F C G G7 /Black skinned /girls and boys /playing/ F C G C /Overhead the /jets of white men /fly/ F C G G7 In the /churches of the /free world they are /pray/ing F C G C While /flower blossoms /flame upon the /sky/ F C G G7 You /run to meet your /god, and find his /empty /face F C G C /Once there was a /garden, but in /some other /place G C
