Bảng hợp âm và lời bài hát Looking East – Jackson Browne
Intro
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Standing in the ocean with the sun burning low in the west
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Like a fire in the cavernous darkness at the heart of the beast
ch]Bb[/ch
With my beliefs and possessions
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
Stopped at the frontier in my chest
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
At the edge of my country, my back to the sea
ch]C[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Looking east
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Where the search for the truth is conducted with a wink and a nod
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And where power and position are equated with the grace of God
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
These times are famine for the soul
ch]Am[/ch
While for the senses it's a feast
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
From the edge of my country, as far as you see
ch]C[/ch
Looking east
ch]Eb[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]Eb[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Hunger in the midnight, hunger at the stroke of noon
ch]Eb[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]Eb[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Hunger in the mansion, hunger in the rented room
ch]Eb[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]Eb[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
Hunger on the TV, hunger on the printed page
ch]Eb[/ch
And there's a God-sized hunger
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Underneath the laughing and the rage
ch]Bb[/ch
In the absence of light
ch]C[/ch
And the deepening night
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
Where I wait for the sun
ch]C[/ch
Looking east
(x2)
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
How long have I left my mind to the powers that be?
[ch]Am[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] (x8)
How long will it take to find the higher power moving in me?
Pre-Chorus
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Power in the insect Power in the sea
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Power in the snow falling silently.
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Power in the blossom Power in the stone
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Power in the song being sung alone
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Power in the wheat field Power in the rain
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Power in the sunlight and the hurricane
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Power in the silence Power in the flame
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Power in the sound of the lover's name
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
The power of the sunrise and the power of a prayer released
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
On the edge of my country, I pray for the ones with the least
ch]Eb[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]Eb[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Hunger in the midnight, hunger at the stroke of noon
ch]Eb[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]Eb[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Hunger in the banquet, hunger in the bride and groom
ch]Eb[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]Eb[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
Hunger on the TV, hunger on the printed page
ch]Eb[/ch
And there's a God-sized hunger
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Underneath the questions of the age
ch]Bb[/ch
And an absence of light
ch]C[/ch
In the deepening night
ch]Bb[/ch
Where I wait for the sun
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Looking east
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
