Misc Unsigned Bands — Joanna Cazden - Community Power Chords
A D A
They're taking away all our power
A B7 E
By bringing in nuclear plants
A D A
They talk of technology's flower
B7 E A
We'd rather give saftey a chance
chorus:
A D B7
Power, power,
E A
Community power is ours for free
A B7
Power, power,
E A
O bring back my power to me
There're fish washing up in the rivers
Pipes crack & the cancer rates rise
They can't find a dump for the garbage
It's trouble, catastrophe—size
chorus
The companies can't get insurance
The dangers are so plain to see
How long can they lie to the public
About "public utility?"
chorus
But now folks are coming together
Control of our lives we demand
We think we might handle it better
Than experts in Washington—land
chorus
Some make this task their "occupation"
They're camping out, going to jail
While others work hard in the courtrooms
Combined effort never will fail
chorus
They're taking away all our power
By bringing in nuclear plants
Like doomsday machines they will tower
We'll stop 'em however we can (& meanwhile)
chorus
I've heard of some farms using windmills
And houses kept warm with chopped wood
And factories running on water—wheels
And the sun heating bathtubs real good!
