Tom: Gm7
Verse One:
-----------------
Gm7 F
High time we made a stand
Eb7+ Am/D
And shook up the views of the common man
Eb7+ Am/D
And the love train, rides from coast to coast
Eb7+ Am/D
DJ's the man we love the most
Gm7 F
Could you be could you be squeaky clean
Eb7+ Am7
And smash every hope of democracy
Eb7+ Am/D
As the headline says you're free to choose
Eb7+ Am/D
There's egg on your face and mud on your shoes
Eb7+ Am/D
One of these days they're gonna call it the blues

Sowing the seeds of love
Am7+ F7+
Seeds of love
Ab G7
Sowing the seeds
(Repeat)
Verse two (same chords as verse one):
Gm7 F
I spy, tears in their eyes
Eb7+ Am/D
They look to the skies for some kind of divine
Eb7+ Am/D
intervention, food goes to waste
Eb7+ Am/D
So nice to eat, so nice to taste
Gm7 F
Politician granny with your high ideals
Eb7+ Am7
Have you no idea how the majority feels
Eb7+ Am/D
So without love and a promised land
Eb7+ Am/D
We're fools to the rules of the government plan

Kick out the style, bring back the jam
