g" f" e" d" c", where g" means the note g on the upper E string etc.
Well, listen to the song and you know what I mean.
EARTH AND SUN AND MOON - Midnight Oil

H A gis A H H

        E
In the morning we will wake up and take to the air
                                           cis
Look back at the planet - I'm glued to my chair
 E
Southern half is burning as we climb through the sky
                                         cis    E
Sea birds softly falling, smoke way up high

             E
There's the contours of the mountains, the deserts and plains
                                               cis
And a hurricane is blowing and it turns once again
            E
Now there's oil spills in the water where columbus once sailed
                                                   cis
And there's history and mystery and it's rolling away


E A cis                  E A cis               fis
         I wish I could see    this great mystery
 E         A       E      A     E      A         E A
Earth and sun and moon - human tribe, thin blue line
 E         A       E      A       E      H A gis A H H
Earth and sun and moon - will survive


(same chords)
Sediment is flowing from river to sea

Now where are the mighty nations, no lines to be seen

An axe upon the broken ground, the sigh of the trees

And it's floating in the ether, it brings me to my knees



        Too messed up to care,   anyone got a wing and a prayer

Earth and sun and moon - human tribe, thin blue line

Earth and sun and moon - will survive



        In the blink of an eye,  thank you and good night


Earth and sun...
