get the message from the mountain and you bring back down the keys

get the message from the river and you bring the gift of peace
        E                                  B
get the message from the forest and you're golden like the fog

get the promise from the people and you sing a hopeful song
get the promise from the needle and you won't be singing long
get the promise from your lover and you give it back again
but no story ever tells what happens then

get the word from brother sun and you're dancing in the light
get the word from sister moon running naked in the night
get the word - get it any way you can
oh that's the only thing i understand
