[INTRO]
[D] [C] [D] [C] [Bm] [D]
The world is f[D]as[C]t becom[D]ing younger
The news is [C]al[Bm]l they've ev[D]er known
They've seen the w[D]ar[C]s, the hurt, the h[D]unger
How will they ch[C]oo[Bm]se when they are gr[D]own?
What do you t[D]el[C]l foreve[D]r's children
When it's th[C]eir tur[Bm]n to hurt a[D]nd heal?
Whatever sp[D]in[C]s a grim t[D]ornado
Can also t[C]ur[Bm]n a potter's wh[D]eel
T[Bm]ake a little cl[D]ay, p[Bm]ut it on a wh[D]eel
G[Bm]et a little h[D]int how G[A]od must f[D]eel
G[Bm]ive a little t[D]urn, l[Bm]isten to it sp[D]in
M[Bm]ake it in the sh[D]ape you w[A]ant it [D]in
Tell with your l[D]if[C]e a blood[D]y story
Teach to their dr[C]ea[Bm]ms not burn[D]ing steel
It's not in b[D]om[C]bs where lies the gl[D]ory
But in what's sh[C]att[Bm]ered on the f[D]ield
The potter's wh[D]ee[C]l takes love [D]and caring
Skill and p[C]at[Bm]ience fast [D]and slow
The works it m[D]ak[C]es are easil[D]y broken
Once they surv[C]iv[Bm]e the potter's thr[D]ow
T[Bm]ake a little cl[D]ay, p[Bm]ut it on a wh[D]eel
G[Bm]et a little h[D]int how G[A]od must f[D]eel
G[Bm]ive a little t[D]urn, l[Bm]isten to it sp[D]in
M[Bm]ake it in the sh[D]ape you w[A]ant it [D]in
[D] [C] [D] [C] [Bm] [D]
Some day some ch[D]ildr[C]en will be[D] digging
In some l[C]on[Bm]g forgott[D]en ground
And they'll find [D]ou[C]r civiliz[D]ation
Or what's left [C]of[Bm] it to be f[D]ound
They'll find the w[D]eap[C]ons of destr[D]uction
But buried d[C]ee[Bm]per in th[D]e hole
They'll find a m[D]ess[C]age and a pr[D]omise
In the s[C]an[Bm]d, the potter's b[D]owl
T[Bm]ake a little cl[D]ay, p[Bm]ut it on a wh[D]eel
G[Bm]et a little h[D]int how G[A]od must f[D]eel
G[Bm]ive a little t[D]urn, l[Bm]isten to it sp[D]in
M[Bm]ake it in the sh[D]ape you w[A]ant it [D]in

G[Bm]et a little h[D]int how G[A]od must f[D]eel
G[Bm]ive a little t[D]urn, l[Bm]isten to it sp[D]in
M[Bm]ake it in the sh[D]ape you w[A]ant it [D]in
[Bm]Earth and w[D]ater and w[Bm]ind consp[D]ire
With h[Bm]uman h[D]ands and l[A]ove and f[D]ire
T[Bm]ake a little cl[D]ay, p[Bm]ut it on a wh[D]eel
G[Bm]et a little h[D]int how G[A]od must f[D]eel
G[Bm]ive a little t[D]urn, l[Bm]isten to it sp[D]in
