Am
I came across a smoking field,
                 C D
pulsating afterglow
I saw a searing flash of light erupt
and skyward go
I staggered back in dazed surprise
What was it I had seen?
And as I stood there mesmerized
I heard my spirit scream

Chorus:
   E
Invader invader nearby
Invader, invader is nigh

This is the first of more to come
in carefully planned attacks
If it is so we must prepare
defenses to fight back
The call is out throughout the world
United we must stand
To build a line, strategic force,
they will not take a man

Chorus

A          G                D F E
When they come to take control
A          G             D  E
every man must play his role
They won't take our world away
when the children we leave
Will have to believe in today

We warn you now you things out there
Whatever you may send
We won't give in without a fight,
a fight until the end
With vigilance by day and night our
scanners trace the sky
A shield is sealed upon this earth,
a shield you won't get by

Chorus
