5. I Don't Want To Be a Soldier
This song is a long jam with only two chords. They should be played without
the 3rd even though they are basically major chords (especially the e-piano
plays the major chords passingly).

6. Give Me Some Truth
On recent editions of the album, the title has been changed
to "Gimme Some Truth"
TIP - An easier way to play this song (less barree chords):
- Transpose this song down three steps to D.
- Put on a capo 3rd fret to bring it back to the original key.

Jump when your momma tell you anything

The only thing you done was yesterday
E7 Am
And since you're gone you're just a-nother day
