Citizen Of The Planet

Intro: C#5  B5  A5  G#5
C#5               B5
I start up in the north
                    A5
I grow from special seed
                   G#5              C#5                  B5
I sprinkle it with sensibility from French and Hungarian snow
                 A5                      G#5
I linger in the sprouting until my engine's full
(C#5  B5  A5  G#5)
Then I move across the sea
To European bliss
To language of poets
As I cut the cord of home
I kiss my mother's mother
Look to the horizon
(C#5  B5  A5  G#5)
Wide eyed, new ground
Humbled by my new surroundings
C#5               D#5 D5
I am a citizen of the planet
C#5               D#5 D5
My president is kwan yin
C#5               D#5 D5
My frontier is on an airplane
C#5               D#5 D5
My prisons: homes for rehabilitating
C#5  B5  A5  G#5
(C#5  B5  A5  G#5)
Then I fly back to my nest
I fly back with my nuclear but everything is different
So I wait, my yearn for home is broadened,
Patriotism expanded by calling from beyond
So I pack my things nothing precious all things sacred
(C#5  D#5  D5)
I am a citizen of the planet
My laws are all of attraction
My punishments are consequences
Separating from source the original sin
(C#5  D#5  D5)
I am citizen of the planet
Democracy's kids are sovereign
Where the teachers are the sages
And pedestals fill with every parent
(C#5  B5  A5  G#5)
And so, the next few years are blurry
The next decades' a flurry of smells and tastes unknown
Threads sewn straight, through this fabric,
Through fields of every color, one culture to another
(C#5  B5  A5  G#5)
I come alive and I get giddy
I am taken and globally naturalized
(C#5  D#5  D5)
I am a citizen of the planet
From simple roots through high vision
I am guarded by the angels
My body guides the direction I go in
(C#5  D#5  D5)
I am a citizen of the planet
My favorite pastime edge stretching
Besotten with human condition
These ideals are borne from my deepest within
