E A
I've seen Jesus play with flames in a lake of fire that I was standing in
B E
Met the devil in Seattle and spent 9 months inside the lions den
E A
Met Buddha yet another time and he showed me a glowing light within
B E
But I swear that God is there every time I glare in the eyes of my best friend
A E
Says my son it's all been done and someday yer gonna wake up old and gray
A
So go and try to have some fun showing warmth to everyone
B B A G# F# E
You meet and greet and cheat along the way
E A
There's a gateway in our mind that leads somewhere out there far beyond this plane
B E
Where reptile aliens made of light cut you open and pull out all your pain
E A
Tell me how you make illegal something that we all make in our brain
B E
Some say you might go crazy but then again it might make you go sane
A A A A
Every time I take a look inside that old and fabled book
A A A A E
I'm blinded and reminded of the pain caused by some old man in the sky
A A A A A A
Marijuana, LSD, psilocybin, and DMT they all changed the way I see
A B B A G# F# E
But love's the only thing that ever saved my life
E
So don't waste your mind on nursery rhymes
Or fairy tales of blood and wine
A G#m F#m
It's turtles all the way down the line
A
So to each their own til' we go home
To other realms our souls must roam
B E
To and through the myth that we all call space and time
