Had to sound out and type all the lyrics for this song
With no help from the requester, Left ? where I couldn’t
Make out what she was singing.

[Verse 1]
C G F G
The government tellS me that I am no good

But I’m brain washed to think all these things in my head
C G F G F G
But I still stay high all the time and I play dead
[Chorus]
C F
Oh, Soul Child don’t you see
G
How good it feels to be free
F G
The world we live in is so damn crazy
C F
And soul child don’t you think
G
That we should all just agree
F G
To take advantage of this beautiful scene
F G
If love is the answer and love is the way

Why can’t we all have peace for a change

Your soul, it saves the day

Does somethings seem backward or is it just me
