Intro
4 beats each with lead behind it):
V1
In golden Hannibal Carthage days marchin' onto Rome.
Knockin' on the door and findin' nobody home there
Rome she cut our army down and left them in the snow
so now I go to where I come from,
now I go home to the Sun.
Chorus
When the earth moves again,
when the earth moves again my friend.
Let the lady ride on thru,
when the earth moves again.
V2
Egyptian kings they sing of Gods and pyramids of stone,
and they left the deserts clean and they left the deserts golden,
and shinin' as a beacon for those that need a road,
into the day and thru the night,
we go and find our way home.
Chorus 2
When the earth moves again.
My love to all the people I leave behind.
Search out the new ground around you,
when the earth moves again.
Bridge
Your head can pull your body around.
and you can leave whenever you can from the ground.
Take what you can on the land.
Sea foam glass is sand
V3
If you've only lived on earth you've never seen the sun,
or the promise of a thousand other suns that glow beyond here,
And if you care to see the future look into the eyes
of your young dancing children, don't be afraid of our ways
Chorus
When the earth moves again,
when the earth moves again my friend,
Let the lady ride on thru
when the earth moves again.
Moses Moses, the red sea closes
over you when you least expect it to.
When the earth moves again.
When the earth moves again
