Red is the cross that covers out shame 

      Am       Em7   G   
Every Kingdom, every land

Has its heart in the common man 
Am    Em7    G               C   Em7   C   Em7 
Silently the tide shifts the sand 

C      Bm       Em7    Am 
Bury my heart on East-Timor 
   C     Am  
In coral sands 
   C       G 
On golden shores 
C         Bm  
Buried are those 
    Em7         G 
Who lived their lives 
Am          G 
No place to hide for

Father and child

We shake the hands that kill and forgive

Bury my heart on East-Timor 
   C     Am  
On barren graves 
      C            G 
Where flowers won't grow 
C         Bm        Em7   G 
Blooms our Red cross lovingly 
     Am          G 
This nightingale deed 
   C        Bm 
So we can be free 
 C      Bm       Em7 G  
Stranded on their is__land 
C      G   F     G  
   This army of the silent 
   C        Bm         Em7       C 
We toast our own goodwill and forget 

      Am       Em7   G   
Every Kingdom, every land 
        C                  Em7  
Has its heart in the common man 
Am    Em7    G               C 
Silently the tide shifts the sand
