5
Just give me the warm power of the sun
6
Give me the steady flow of a waterfall
7
Give me the spirit of living things as they return to clay.
8
Just give me the restless power of the wind
9
Give me the comforting glow of a wood fire
10
But please take all of your atomic poison power away.
11
Everybody needs some power I'm told
12
To shield them from the darkness and the cold
13
Some may see a way to take control when it's bought and sold.
14
I know that lives are at stake
15
Yours and mine and our descendants in time.
16
There's so much to gain, so much to lose
17

18
Just give me the warm power of the sun
19
Give me the steady flow of a waterfall
20
Give me the spirit of living things as they return to clay.

Give me the comforting glow of a wood fire
23
But please take all of your atomic poison power away.

Give me the comforting glow of a wood fire

But please take all of your atomic poison power away.
30
Won't you do this for me?
31
Take all of your atomic poison power
32
Take all of your atomic poison power
33
Take all of your atomic poison power
34
Away.

Note: The original has a second stanza which Crosby & Nash omitted in concert. It appears below.
36
We are only now beginning to see
37
How delicate the balance of nature can be
38
The limits of her ways have been defined
39
And we've crossed that line.
40
Some don't even care or know that we'll pay
41
But we have seen the face of death in our day.
42
There's so little time to change our ways
43
If only we together can say
