In golden Hannibal Carthage days marchin' onto Rome

B                                Am     C#m

knockin' on the door and findin' nobody home there

E

Rome she cut our army down and left them in the snow 

   B                             C#m                  B Am

So now I go to where I come from now I go home to the Sun


E           C#m          B 

   When the earth moves again

E           C#m          B 

   When the earth moves again my friend

E          C#m  B 

   Let the lady ride on through

E           C#m          B    Am

   When the earth moves again


 E 

Egyptian kings they sing of Gods and pyramids of stone

         B                               Am               C#m 

and they left the deserts clean and they left the deserts golden 

Shinin' as a beacon for those that need a road

  B                                C#m                 B Am

into the day and thru the night we go and find our way home


E           C#m          B 

   When the earth moves again

E             C#m            B 

   My love to all the people I leave behind

E                 C#m         B 

   Search out the new ground around you

E           C#m          B    

   When the earth moves again


     Am

Your head can pull your body around

    B 

And you can leave whenever you can and the ground

C#m                            B                        A D

take what you and on the land- sea foam, glass is sand


          E 

If you've only lived on earth, you've never seen the sun

       B                           Am               C#m

Or the promise of a thousand other suns that glow beyond here

       E 

And if you care to see the future- look into the eyes

        B                       C#m                    B Am

Of your young dancing children, don't be afraid of our ways



E           C#m          B 

   When the earth moves again

E           C#m          B 

   When the earth moves again

E            C#m  B 

   Watch the lady ride and sigh

E           C#m          B 

   When the earth moves again


C#m                                                B 

Moses, Moses! The red sea closes over you when you least expect it to

E           C#m          B 

   When the earth moves again

E           C#m           B   A E 

   When the earth moves again
