I mostly write and sing thought provoking songs of a spiritual nature. I also write songs of ecological and political protest as well as traditional folk songs.

Story behind the song

Though we sometimes get down on life, it is the journey to God. It only needs to be seen in the right context.

Lyrics

C                        C4             C
There’s a grumbling goin round
       C4                          C
I heard it through the sun
          C4                        C
But I read between the lines
             C4                    C
And buried it in the ground

G                                        F
Darkness takes its toll of light
C4                               C
Death takes its toll of life
               G                     F
It’s like searchin for a stream
C4                                  C
Flowin to and from the sea

                  C4                           C
There’s a grumbling about the price
          C4                            D
That we’ve got to pay for life
           C4                    C
And again about the work
               C4                    C   
That our fellow workers shirkin
           C4                           C
You grumble about your man
          C4                        C
And again about your woman
            C4                          C
Even grumble about your grumbling
        G                    F
Confusion goin around
             C4                     C
But in silence sound is found
               G                      F
It’s like searchin for a stream
      C4                            C
Flowin to and from the sea

   C4  D
                 D4                           D
Well the poor man’s hand is high
              D4                         C
Getting ready to strike his blow
              D4                             D
And the rich man’s life’s controlled
             D4                   C
By his mental God of gold
  C4                            C
Still more debts they owe
              C4             D
To their illusionary foe
              D4                     C
And the one we know as soul
        C4                      D       C4  D
Is a prisoner here below

                 D4                    C
There’s a grumbling goin round
    C4                           D
I heard it through the sun
          D4                       C
But I read between the lines
         C4                     D
And buried it in the ground

             A                      G                     
When love within is found
               D4                           D
And we know the light and sound
       A                         G
It’s then that we may be
      D4                         C
At one again with the sea
   C4                               D
Flowin to and from the sea
       D4                       F  C   D
At one again with the sea
