When The Earth Moves Again
by Jefferson Airplane

INTRO (4 beats each with lead behind it):
A E-A E-A-E-A E-A E D

V1
A
In golden Hannibal Carthage days marchin' onto Rome.
E D

Knockin' on the door and findin' nobody home there
A
Rome she cut our army down and left them in the snow
E
so now I go to where I come from,
D E
now I go home to the Sun.

CHORUS
A D E
When the earth moves again,
A D E
when the earth moves again my friend.
A D E
Let the lady ride on thru,
A D E D
when the earth moves again.

V2
A
Egyptian kings they sing of Gods and pyramids of stone,
E D
and they left the deserts clean and they left the deserts golden,
A
and shinin' as a beacon for those that need a road,
E
into the day and thru the night,
D E
we go and find our way home.

CHORUS 2

A D E
When the earth moves again.
A D E
My love to all the people I leave behind.
A D E
Search out the new ground around you,
A D E D
when the earth moves again.

BRIDGE

F#
Your head can pull your body around.
B
and you can leave whenever you can from the ground.
D
Take what you can on the land.
A E D
Sea foam glass is sand

V3

A
If you've only lived on earth you've never seen the sun,
E D
or the promise of a thousand other suns that glow beyond here,
A
And if you care to see the future look into the eyes
E D E D
of your young dancing children, don't be afraid of our ways

CHORUS

A D E
When the earth moves again,
A D E
when the earth moves again my friend,
A D E
Let the lady ride on thru
A D E D
when the earth moves again.
A D E
Moses Moses, the red sea closes
A D E
over you when you least expect it to.
A D E
When the earth moves again.
A D E D
When the earth moves again
A........!
