Bhagavan Decreed

G                                
Brains cannot defeat me when I'm 
C                    G
stoned little darling
G                                 
Sticks and stones can beat you out
         A7   D7
 of time
G                                  
And I'm standing on the brink of a 
C                              G
bridge that's black at sunrise
G                     A7         
I don't think I'll be home in 
           G
time to dine

C                                 
Each plant has a root that's 
     G
dipped in blood
        C                          
So later on we'll all find out 
  A7                D7
we're just nameless mud

            G                   
And I'm sayin' good bye to those 
   C                  G
old-time demons darling
G                 A7             G
Leave at your own risk, not mine

[repeat the pattern throughout the 
remainder of the song]

Why can't you make it to the place 
you're always going to
Could it be you're going to all the 
time
Well I might be traveling backwards 
when I wake up tomorrow
If you must go won't you please 
leave me a dime

The earth turns on as Bhagavan 
decreed
So later on we'll see ourselves and 
all be free
But sayin' goodbye to you is 
suicidal darling
Don't hang your mind up just where I
 hang mine

Life is a quarry you can dig all you
 want too
Rockin' jumpin' ball go up or down
And you can burn your brain cells 
out just trying to get higher
But you'll find the highest place is
 underground

They've got you like the moon has 
got the tide
You say your drifting babe you're 
going for a ride
You say one day soon we will all 
stand as brothers
G                       A7       
Till then I guess we'll just 
          G   C G
stand around
