Genre: folk, protest song, rock


[Verse]
D F# Bm
Far across the ocean
D F# Bm
In the land of look and see
D F# Bm
There once was a time
E A
For you and me
D F# Bm
Where the winds blow sweetly
D F# Bm
And the easy seas flow still
D F# Bm
And where the barefoot dream of life
E A
Can laugh and cry its fill
D F# Bm
Where slot machine confusions
D F# Bm
And the plastic universe
D F# Bm
Are objects of amusement
E A
In the fiction of their curse
D F# Bm
And where the crazy whiteman
D F# Bm
And his teargas happiness
D F# Bm
Lies dead and long since buried
E A
By his own fantastic mess

[Chorus]
D F# Bm
For I hate the whiteman
D F# Bm
And his plastic excuse
D F# Bm G
For I hate the whiteman
F# Bm F#
And the man who turned him loose...

[Verse]
D F# Bm
And the reins of coloured thunder
D F# Bm
Of the stallion of the dawn
D F# Bm
Ride the coalfire morning
E A
On the beach where all is born
D F# Bm
Where the emperor of meaning
D F# Bm
Is burning up his forts
D F# Bm
And sits to warm his toes around
E A
A fire made up of useless thoughts
