Tony Joe White - Closer To The Truth
Dm
F C Dm
Strong instinct for survival
F C Dm
Romantically insane
F C Gm
Moving soft along the edge of time
Bb C Dm
Like a panther in the rain F
C Dm
Manipulated rebels
F C Dm
With a total disregard for the rules
F C
When pride comes tumbling off
Gm
the great white stallion
Bb C Dm
You move closer to the truth
Bb, C, D
C D
And the search continues for the meaning
C D
We build the cathedrals high
C A G
And keep our weapons ready
Bb C Dm
Looming dark against the sky
F, C, Dm
F, C, Dm
F, C, Gm
Bb, C, Dm
Bb, C, Dm
F C Dm
They're taking down the rain forest
F C Dm
Changing it to a room without a view
F C Gm
The big trees fall like dominoes
Bb C Dm
And we move closer to the truth
Bb, C, D
C D
And the eagle watches from the mountain
C D
As the warriors turn into fools
C A G
And the dice are thrown on sacred ground
Bb C Dm
And they move closer to the truth
F C Dm
And who's gonna tell the children
F C Dm
How the rivers used to flow cystal blue
F C Gm
And we keep leaving scars on Mother Earth
Bb C Dm
And moving closer to the truth
F, C, Dm
F, C, Dm
F, C, Gm
Bb, C, Dm
