listen to this song

/ G -D G -D / G D C (-)G / D -G D -G / C G (Am) D /

 

Hark!  Through the park!

All the dinosaurs are singing!

Lost to memory was their melody,

Hear their voices sweetly ringing!

 

Even though, down below,

Danger lurks on every hand,

There is beauty here, even more than fear,

And I finally understand...

 

/ G CD G CD / G - F -D / 1st / G - C D / G ... /

 

Put away your fears, open up your ears;

Sixty million years have gone

Since the dinosaur, I've not heard before,

How I wish the world could hear their song!

 

Come and rest in the nest,

'Til the coming of the dawn.

Though the path ahead may be full of dread,

Hand in hand we'll carry on.

 

/ " / " / F D F D / F Am D - /

 

From this tree, I can see

To a world I thought had been lost.

This is joy and grace, though I know this place

Isn't nearly worth what it's cost.

 

Open up your eyes, in the twilight skies,

As the evening fades to dark...

See the hand of God, see the sauropod,

As the sun sets on Jurassic Park!
