The First Person On Earth

(início)

(intro) B A E A  B  E
          B
From the water
          A            E
From the rock and the dirt, you were
     A     B        E
The first person on earth
        B
Oh the mountains
        A                      E
And the oceans witnessed your birth
     A     B        E
The first person on earth
      B
By a river, on the banks of a sandy shore
   A                E
Untouched, clean, fresh and pure
     A     B        E
The first person on earth
        B
In the light of the sun you emerged
            A                            E
To see the good in the world before the pain and the scourge
     A     B        E
The first person on earth
         B
In the quiet, in the calm, before the storm
                A                          E
You heard the dream for a love that never dies in a poem
     A     B        E
The first person on earth
            B
And I'm in love with you, I'm in love with a dream
      A                    E
That can not be realized, held or seen
        A    B        E
By the last person on earth
          B
After the earthquakes, the hurricanes, the fires and floods
     A              E
I'm jaded, cynical, angry and glum
     B
The world's too absurd and obscene for true love
A                       E
And more than happy to let me become
     A     B        E
The last person on earth
            B
To let me stand on a rock, the muddy waters surround
  A                   E
Abandoned, alone, the end soon to come
        A    B        E
As the last person on earth
        B
As the waters rise at the end of the world
           A                      E
Thought I bear the weight of the rock and the dirt
    B
I know I'm worthy of your love
        A             E
As the last person on earth
        B
As the waters rise at the end of the world
           A                      E
Thought I bear the weight of the rock and the dirt
    B
I know I'm worthy of your love
        A             E
As the last person on earth
