CHORUS
D          Am
Love is et-er-nal sacred light
D              Am
Free from the shack-les of time
D       Am
Evil is dark-ness, sight without sight
  D           Am
A de-mon that feeds on the mind
 
 
VERSE 1
Am7
How´d it all begin? Started with a bang
 
Couple of light years later, stars and planets sang
 
Fire warmed the cold, waves of colors flew
 
Moonlight into gold, earth to green and blue
 
 
CHORUS
D          Am
Love is et-er-nal sacred light
D              Am
Free from the shack-les of time
D       Am
Evil is dark-ness, sight without sight
  D           Am
A de-mon that feeds on the mind
 
 
VERSE 2
Am
Earth becomes a farm
 
Farmer takes a wife
 
Wife becomes a river and the giver of life
 
Man becomes machine
Am
Oil runs down his face
 
Machine becomes a man with a bomb in the marketplace
 
Bomb in the marketplace, bomb in the marketplace
 
 
CHORUS
D          Am
Love is et-er-nal sacred light
D              Am
Free from the shack-les of time
D       Am
Evil is dark-ness, sight without sight
  D           Am
A de-mon that feeds on the mind

BRIDGE 1
Am
Big Bang
 
That´s a joke that I made up
 
Once when I had eons to kill
Am
You know, most folks
 
They don´t get when I´m joking
 
Well, maybe someday they will
 
 
BRIDGE 2
Am
Love me
 
Love me
Am
That´s the main request I receive
 
Well you know I love all my children
 
And it tears me up when I leave
 
 
VERSE 3
    G
But sometimes you gotta fly down that highway
 
Free as a bird, knock on wood, thank the Lord
 
I am driving along in my automobile
                                     D
It´s a brand new pre-owned ´96 Ford
 
 
VERSE 4
G
Check out the radio, pop music station
 
That don´t sound like my music to me
 
Talk show host, what´s that boy´s name?
            D
Politics is ugly
 
 
VERSE 5
       G
At the end of the dial there´s the gospel show
                               D
Maybe now I can exit and rest
          D                C            G        C
There´s a blizzard rolling down off the banks of Lake Michigan
      G                      D       C
Gonna cover the roads of the icy Mid-west
