I got my nuts from a hippy in a camper van on Saturday night
Same chords as previous verse- here are the lyrics
Well I asked if she believed in Adam and Eve the fable
And I guess she would??ve given me an answer if only she was able
And she danced like a medicine man
Drew a crazy picture on my hand and told me
She wanted to change my point of view
Asked me where I was going to
EmG5E5
But it??s alright, it??s alright
G5B5
It??s alright, it??s alright
E5 G5 D5 B5* E5*
