[Intro]
A  G  D  A
[Verse 1]
   A                   G
We live in the land of plenty
    D                            A
But many things aren't plenty anymore
         A
Like the water from our sink
     G
They say is not safe to drink
    D                          A
You gotta go and buy it at the store.
[Verse 2]
           G                          A
Now, we're told there's a hole in the ozone
G                         A
Look whats washing on the beach
    A
And lord, i believe
         G
From the heavens to the seas
      D                             A
We're bringing mother nature to her knees
[Chorus]
         D                   A
So let's leave some blue up above us
      G          D            A
Let's leave some green on the ground
    A
Its only ours to borrow
      G
Let's save some for tommorrow
D                       A
Leave it and pass it on down
[Break]
G  D  A
[Verse 3]
                A                               G
Well, there's a change taking place away on the mountains
D                           A
Acid rain is falling on the leaves
                       G
And down in brazil the fires are burning still
D                                 A
How we gonna breathe without them trees?
[Chorus]
         D                   A
So let's leave some blue up above us
      G          D            A
Let's leave some green on the ground
    A
Its only ours to borrow
      G
Let's save some for tommorrow

[Verse 4]
          A                              G
There's a place where i lived called the canyon
D                           A
Where my daddy taught me to swim
                          G
And that water is so pure - and i'm gonna make sure
        D                             A
Daddy's grandkids can swim there like him
[Verse 5]
       G                                   A
Now we all ought to feel just a little bit guilty
        G                         A
When we look into the eyes of our kids
                                 G
Cause brothers its a fact, if we take and not put back
D                              A
They'll have to pay for all we did
[Chorus]
         D                   A
So let's leave some blue up above us
      G          D            A
Let's leave some green on the ground
    A
Its only ours to borrow

Let's save some for tommorrow

Leave it and pass it on down
