F# C# F#
For all of our languages we can't communicate

For all of our native tongues we're all natives here

Sons of their fathers' dream the same dream
C# D#m
The sound of forbidden words becomes a scream
B C#
Voices in anger, victims of history
D#m C# B C# F#
Plundered and set aside, grown fat on swallowed pride.
F# C# F#
With promises of paradise and gifts of beads and knives
C# D#m
Missionaries and pioneers are soldiers in disguise
A#m D#m F#
Saviours and conquerors they make us wait
C# D#m
The fishers of men they wave their truth like bait
B C#
With the touch of a stranger's hand innocence turns to shame
D#m C# B C# F#
The spirit that dwelt within now sleeps out in the rain.

For all of our languages we can't communicate
C# D#m
For all of our native tongues we're all natives here
A#m D#m F#
The scars of the past are slow to disappear

The cries of the dead are always in our ears

Only the very safe can talk about wrong or right
D#m C# B C# F#
Of those who are forced to choose some will choose to fight
F# C# F#
For all of our languages we can't communicate
