Tune down whole step:

[note: add one whole tone to each chord below to find shapes, e.g., C = D, F
= G, Bb = C ]
||:C C F G |C C F G :|
Ooh...
C C F G
The Red-chins in their millions
C C F G
Will overspill their borders
C C F G C
And chaos then will reign in our Rael
The country of my fathers
A proud land of old order
Like a goldfish being swallowed by a whale
Bb Ab
Rael, the home of my religion
Bb Ab G
To me the center of the earth
The Red-chins in their millions
Will overspill their borders
And chaos then will reign in our Rael
My heritage is threatened
My roots are torn and cornered
And so to do my best I'll homeward sail
C F G Bb Bb Bb Bb
And so to do my best I'll homeward sail
Bb (Bb/A) (Bb/G) F (F/Eb) (F/D) (F/C)
Now captain, listen to my instructions
Bb F
Return to this spot on christmas day
Bb F
Look toward the shore for my signal
Bb Ab G
And then you'll know if in Rael I'll stay
||:G G G/F# C/G C/G G:||
G G/F# C/G G
If a yellow flag is fluttering
G G/F# C/G G
Sickly herald against the morn
G G/F# F
Then you'll know my courage has ended
C G C/G G
And you'll send your boat ashore
But if a red flag is flying
Brazen bold against the blue
Then you'll know that I am staying
And my yacht belongs to you
Bb F
Now captain, listen to my instructions
Return to this spot on christmas day
Look toward the shore for my signal
Bb Ab G
And then you'll know if in Rael I'll stay
|| G G G/F# C/G C/G G || A A A/Ab D/A D/A A || G...

Ooh ooh ooh

What I see is all I've seen
F C
In my sweetest sleeping dreams
F C
What I feel is all I've felt
F Am
When by newborn babes I've knelt
F C Am
What I know now is all I've known

That has been good while I have grown
C
Bless the thoughts that made me sail
F A5
And the god who made Rael
