I am a little flower that blossoms for every hour and in me there is a power that goes on and on power in the roots of me power in the shoots of me power in the fruit that will pass my seed on I am as old as the universe ...

I Release and I Let Go I release and I let go, let the Spirit run my life And in my heart, I’m open wide; Yes, I’m only here for love No more trouble, No more strife, With my faith I see the light Yes, I’m free with the Spirit; Yes, I’m only here for Love

Angel from Montgomery Lyrics and Music by John Prine

G C G C I am an old woman named after my mother, G C D (G) My old man is another child that’s grown old. G C G C If dreams were lightning and thunder was desire, G C D (G) This old house would’ve burnt down a long time ago. G F C G Make me an angel that flies from Montgomery. G F C (G) Make me a poster of an old rodeo. G F C G Just give me one thing that I can hold on to. G C D (G) (x2) To believe in this living is just a hard way to go. When I was a young girl I had me a cowboy, He weren’t much to look at, just a free ramblin’ man. But that was a long time, and no matter how I try, These dreams go by like a broken-down dam. (chorus) There’s flies in the kitchen, I can hear ‘em there buzzin’ and I ain’t done nothin’ since I woke up today. How the hell can a person go to work in the mornin’ and come home in the evenin’ and have nothin’ to say? (chorus)

Blowin’ in the Wind Lyrics and Music by Bob Dylan

C F C How many roads must a man walk down, F C G Before you can call him a man? C F C Am How many seas must a white dove sail, C F G G7 Before she sleeps in the sand? C F C Am How many times must the cannonballs fly, C F C G Before they are forever banned? F

The answer my friend is blowin’ in the wind, F

The answer is blowin’ in the wind. How many years must some mountains exist Before they are swept to the sea? (Yes and) How many years must some people exist Before they’re allowed to be free? How many times can a man turn his head And pretend that he just doesn’t see? (chorus) How many times must a man look up Before he can see the sky? (And) How many ears must one man have Before he can hear people cry? How many deaths will it take ‘til he knows That too many people have died. (chorus 2x)

Closer to Fine Lyrics and Music by The Indigo Girls

G C add9/A C add9 “D part”* I’m trying to tell you something ‘bout my life. G C add9/A C add9 “D part”* Maybe give me inside between black and white. D C The best thing you’ve ever done for me D C G C add9/A C add9 “D part”* Is to help me take my life less seriously, it’s only life after all. Well darkness has a hunger that’s insatiable. And lightness has a call that’s hard to hear. I wrap my fear around me like a blanket. I sailed my ship of safety ‘til I sank it, I’m crawling on your shore. D C G I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains, D C G I looked to the children, I drank from the fountain, D C There’s more than one answer to these questions, G Pointing me in a crooked line. D C And the less I seek my source from some definitive G C add9/A C add9 “D part”* The closer I am to fine (2x) I went to see the doctor of philosophy With a poster of Rasputin and a beard down to his knees. He never did marry or see a B-grade movie. Acoustic Guitar my performance, He graded He said he could see through me. I spent four years prostrate to the higher mind, Got my paper and I was free

Country Roads Lyrics adapted from “Country Roads” by Pesach Stadlin ; Music by John Denver

C Am Almost heaven, Eden Village Camp G F Putnam Valley, Hudson River. C Am Life is old there, older than the trees, G F C Younger than the mountains, blowin’ like a breeze. C G Am F Country roads, take me home, to the place, I belong, C G F C Eden Village, Mountain Mama, take me home, country roads. All my memories, gather ‘round her, Miner’s lady, stranger to blue water. Dark and dusty, painted on the sky, Misty taste of moonshine, Teardrops in my eyes. (chorus) Am G C I hear her voice in the morning as she calls me F C G The radio reminds me of my home far away. Am G F Driving down the road I get a feeling C that I should have been home G G7 Yesterday, yesterday. (chorus)

Do you Believe in Love? Yoni Stadlin

Do you belieeeeve in love? 3x C

G A

And what are ya doing about that? One day I spent the whole day looking in the mirror, Staring at the reflection of who I’d became. Until my reflection up on the wall, Asked me a question that summed up it all, Do you belieeeeeeve....? One day I was a general...of a war, leading my troops to forever more. I ran into my “enemy” I couldn’t believe what he said to me, he was like Do you belieeeeeeve....? One day I was a logger, deep in the woods I was going after some redwoods, as many as I could. Through a calm and gentle breeze, I heard a voice, I heard the trees, They said, Do you belieeeeeeve....? One day I was a planet, Called EARTH I was home, for anything that could make it work. These things called people started making a mess. This song’s for us, we gotta do our best, WE SAY (chorus)

Every boy in this land Grows to be his own man. In this land every girl Grows to be her own woman.

Take my hand, come along, Lend your voice to my song. Come along, take my hand, Sing a song...

Take my hand, come with me, Where the children are free. Come with me, take my hand And we’ll run...

For a land where the river runs free. For a land through the green country. For a land to a shining sea. For a land where horses run free. And you and me are free to be You and me.

To a land...

E B A B C#m G#m A B And as the bombshells of my daily fears explode, I try to trace them to my youth. Then you had to bring up reincarnation, over a couple of beers the other night. Now I’m serving time for mistakes made by another in another lifetime. E B A How long ‘til my soul gets it right? B E B A Can any human being ever reach that kind of light? B C#m G#m F# I call on the resting soul of Galileo, A B E B A B King of night vision, King of insight. I think about my fear of motion, which I never could explain. Some other fool across the ocean years ago, must have crashed his little airplane. (chorus) C#m A F# A I’m not making a joke, you know me I take everything so seriously. C#m A If we wait for the time til all souls get it right, B A G#m F# Then at least I know there’ll be no nuclear annihilation E B A B In my lifetime, I’m still not right. I offer thanks to those before me, that’s all I’ve got to say. Maybe you squandered big bucks in your lifetime, now I have to pay. But, then again, it feels like some sort of inspiration, to let the next life off the hook. Or, she’ll say: look what I had to overcome from my last life, I think I’ll write a book.

C / F / C / G (repeat ∞) The lemongrass is getting bright On this fine summer’s day The rain came down and touched the fields And washed this drought away Well I ain’t got much money And I don’t got the time But I think I’ll be just fine tonight I got my chicory root and my dandelion greens Although they’re bitter they’re just what I need I got gardens above me, gardens below me Gardens behind me, gardens inside of me 2x Where do I go now, where do I do, where do I go now? 2x Everywhere I go now...

C C/B Am G F G C Kind friends all gathered ‘round there’s something I would say. C/B Am G F G What brings us together here has blessed us all today. C C/B AmG F G Love has made a circle that holds us all inside

C/B Am G F G Open up your heart to the tears and laughter. C C/B AmGF G C And give yourself to love, give yourself to love. I’ve walked these mountains in the rain. I’ve learned to love the wind.

Well your faith was strong but you needed proof You saw her bathing on the roof Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you She tied you to her kitchen chair She broke your throne and she cut your hair And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah (chorus) Well Baby I’ve been here before I’ve seen this room and I’ve walked this floor, I used to live alone before I knew you And I’ve seen your flag on the marble arch And love is not a victory march It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah (chorus) Maybe there is a God above But all I’ve ever learned from love Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you And it’s not a cry that you hear at night It’s not somebody who’s seen the light It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah

Sounds of Silence Lyrics and Music by Paul Simon

(Am) G Hello darkness my old friend.

Am I’ve come to talk to you again. F C Because a vision softly creeping. F C Left its seed while I was sleeping. F C And the vision that was planted in my brain. Am C G Am Still remains... within the sounds of silence. In restless dreams I walked alone. Narrow streets of cobblestone. ‘Neath the halo of a street lamp I turned my collar to the cold and damp. When my eyes were stabbed By the flash of a neon light That split the night- and touched The sound of silence. And in the naked light I saw Ten-thousand people, maybe more. People talking without speaking. People hearing without listening. People writing songs That voices never shared. No one dared disturb The sound of silence. Fools said I you do not know Silence like a cancer grows Hear my words that I might teach you. Take my arms that I might reach you. But my words like silent raindrops fell (pause) And echoed in the well of silence. And the people bowed and prayed To the neon gods they made. And the sign flashed out its warning. In the words that it was forming. And the sign said The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls And the tenement halls – and whisper In the sounds of silence.

All God’s Critters Written by Bill Staines

C All God’s critter’s got a place in the choir, G C C7 Some sing low and some sing higher, F C Some sing out loud on the telephone wire, C G C And some just clap their hands, or paws, or anything they got, now. Listen to the bass it’s the one on the bottom, Where the bullfrog groans and the hippopotamus Moans and groans with a big to do, And the old cow just goes moo. (chorus) The dogs and the cats they take up the middle, The hummingbird hums and cricket fiddles, The donkey brays and pony neighs, And the old coyote howls. (chorus) ten to the top where the little bird’s singing On the melody with a high note ringing, And the hoot owl hollers over everything, And the jay bird disagrees. (chorus) Singin’ in the night time, singin in the day The little duck quacks, then he’s on his way The posuum aint got much to say And the porcupine talks to himself (chorus) It’s a simple song of living sung everywhere by the ox and the fox and the grizzly bear the grumpy alligator and the hawk above the sly racoon and the turtle dove (chorus)

To decomposition Group 1: Muncha, muncha, muncha... Group 2: Decomposition, decomposition, decomposition... Group 3: I get down, I break down, I get... There are many kids of bugs Worms and snails and slimy slugs They are useful for me and you They help to make the soil... renew. (chorus) Decomposition is a useful game A tree drops its leaves But they don’t stay the same A bug chews them up and spits them back out Making the soil for a new tree to sprout (chorus)

Blame Not Lyrics by Cara Silverberg; Music by Peter Tosh (“You Can’t Blame the Youth”)

G C G You teach the youth about ba’al tashchit. G D G You teach the youth about tzar baalei chayyim G C G You teach the youth about no psolet G D G You teach the youth to keep the earth clean. G C G So you can’t blame the news of today G C G You must learn to choose G C G “If not now when” will it be? Em D G We must rethink, reduce, and reuse. So go and ride your bicycle To the movies or to the school Don’t have to drive, you can take a walk To the market or to shul. You can plant an urban garden To attract the birds and the bees In the city, you can create a forest Just start with some love and some seeds So you can’t blame the news of today You must learn to choose Global warming is in the air We must make an effort to improve. You teach the youth about tikkun olam And to be Shomrei Adamah We are keepers of the earth L’ovdah u’l’shomra. Remember in the Garden of Eden Adam and Eve were given life to protect Now we must heed these mitzvot And on Shabbat we’ll let the land rest.

So you can’t blame the news of today You must learn to choose. Part of the problem or part of the solution? The earth’s future is up to you. Hit-bo-de-dut in the forest Rabbi Nachman tells us where to start. Light comes from the mind, Fire comes from the heart. So you can’t blame the news of today You must learn to choose. What prayer will you share with the world When you find the light inside of you. The media is all around us Trying to trick us and tell us what we need. They tell us what to buy and how to act If we want to succeed. You must be wise and independent Question what they claim on TV Let your decisions be reflections Of how you live and what you believe. So you can’t blame the news of today You must learn to choose. So you can’t blame the news of today You must learn to choose. Heschel teaches “radical amazement”, Creation happens every single day. Awareness is our greatest tool To make discoveries all along our way. So you can’t blame the news of today You must learn to choose. You must be the change you wish you to see You must be the change.

Evil Waste Lyrics by Jonathan Ferris, Deborah Newbrun, Timnah Steinman and Dana Rosenburg; Music by Clarence Henry

Am D Am D Am D Am You’ve got to change you’re evil waste, baby,

Am D Am D Before the landfills are filled and closed. Am D Am You’ve got to change, baby,

Am D Am D You’re wasting ways are growing old. Am D Am D You must reduce it, re-use it, recycle today Am D Am D Go tell your neighbors, your parents, do it today! E Am D Am D This can’t go on; you know you’ve got to change. When you’re asleep, baby, The faucets drip and the lights are on, Water is life, baby, And you know you’re wasting energy. (chorus) When you’re at meals, baby, Food you don’t eat just goes to waste, Breadcrusts and milk, baby Be careful what you put on your plate. (chorus)

Psolet Written by Adam Berman and Ben Landman

G Em C D Ooh wa ooh wa ooh wa ooh ooh ooh

(2x)

G Em C D Each day I go to breakfast put oatmeal in my bowl Fill up my glass with O.J. Eat half my jelly roll. CHORUS 1:

I can’t believe I took more than I ate That’s why I have so much psolet on my plate. Take two bites of an apple Drop raisins on the trail Pull bread crusts off my sandwich I say it’s ’cause they’re stale. CHORUS 2:

Each night I ask the stars in the sky (Hey stars!) Why does the food on my plate pile up so high? Ooh Wah Ooh Wah Ooh Wah Ooh Ooh But now I’m feeling happy I’m peaceful and serene I’m a ba’al bal tash’chit Because my plate is clean! CHORUS 3:

It’s true – I took no more than I ate That’s why you’ll never find psolet on my plate.

Save Some Trees (Mister) Dave Orleans

C G If I were a tree (echo), in the middle of the woods (echo) G C With the sun and the rain (echo), I’d feel real good (echo) C F I’d make some shade (echo), to cool my friends (echo) C F I’d grow buds and seeds and leaves on my branches C F Let the birds and the squirrels make homes, and the chances are C G C Good that I’d be happy right to the end (right to the end) F C G Save some trees for me, mister F C G C Save some trees for when... when we grow up, (echo) If I were a fish (echo), just swimming in a stream (echo) I’d have a lot of fun (echo), if you know what I mean (echo) Say “hi!” to a frog (echo), who’s looking for a fly (echo) But I’d hide in the weeds from that funny old muskrat Stay away from the worms on hooks, cause I know that I’d rather live here in the stream ‘til the day I die! (til the day I die! (chorus with “streams”) If I were a cloud (echo), just floating in the sky (echo) I’d have a nice time (echo), as I drift on by (echo) I’d go to the sea (echo), to fill with rain (echo) Then I’d rain on the city and all the people in it And I’d clean all the dirt from the air in a minute The sky’d be blue when the sun came out again (came out again) (chorus with “air”) If I were the sun (echo), making daytime bright (echo) Lookin’ down on the earth (echo), spinning day and night (echo) Like a great big ball (echo), of blue and green (echo) Where the land and the sea and the sky come together The wind and the clouds swirl around making weather It’s the prettiest doggone planet that I’ve ever seen! (that I’ve ever seen) (chorus with “world”)
