So come sit down
A G
Will you talk with me now?
Let me see through your eyes
A G
Where there is so much life
A G
We are biding our time
A G
For these myths to unwind
A G C
These changes we will confront
G
So please beware
A G
With every place that you head
Look to your soul
A G
For these things that you know
A G
For the trees that we see
A G
Cannot forever breathe
A G C
With the changes they will confront
Chorus
C
You know some people
F C
They just wont understand
F C G
They just wont understand these things
C
Thank you for your message
F C
But I don't understand
F C G
No, I just wont understand these things
G
This sacred land it has
A G
Seen many hands, it has
Wealth and gold yet it is
A G
Fragile and old and all the
A G A G
Greedy souls just don't care to know
A G C
Of the changes it will confront
G
So speak out loud of the
A G
Things you are proud
And if you love this coast
A G
Keep it clean as it evolves
A G
Cos the way that it shines
A G
May just dwindle with time
A G C
With the changes it will confront
Chorus x 2
C
You know some people
F C
They just wont understand
F C G
They just wont understand these things
C
Thank you for your message
F C
But I don't understand
F C G
No, I just wont understand these things
G
So hold nice and close
A G
The ones that get to your soul
So that when it is cold
A G
You wont feel so alone
A G
Cos the roads that you take
A G
May just crack and break
A G C
With the changes you will confront
G
With each gift that you share
A G
You may heal and repair
With each choice that you make
A G
You may help someone's day
A G
Well I know you are strong
A G
May your journey be long
A G C
Now I wish you the best of luck
A G
Well I know you are strong
A G
May your journey be long
A G C
And now I wish you the best of luck
Any suggestions let me know.

| i recently discovered xavier rudd. i cant believe it took me this long. i listened to him the entire time i was in mexico and he will forever remind me of that place. i just found out he is opening for dave which makes me exstatic and i might catch a plane all the way up to massy just to see xavier rudd open for mr.dave matthews. thats how amazing i think it will be. | |

| i just love this song so much. its confronting when you think about how the world is changing and our place in it. some people just disregard the landscape even though we depend on it. | |

| this is another fantastic song written by xavier. its about all the ignorant people who just can't or won't listen to the reality of our situation. they live comfortably in their bubble, not caring about the changes our environment is confronting due to our mistakes. i hope this song opens up some peoples eyes... | |

| Some people disreguard the environment, and wont change their views no matter what. "thank you for your message, but i won't understand" "these trees that we see, cannot forever breathe with the change it will confront" With the forever changing environment and forrest chopping, the trees that are left cannot "forever breathe" and keep fighting against at the changes taking place. People should respect the environment more and "keep it clean as it evolves" so the world's environment will not be destroyed | |
