Marijuana David Peel
[A]Well once upon a time in 1[E]776,
Thomas Je[D]fferson signed his name on a piece of [A]marijuana,
and this document was a sym[E]bol of freedom and of [D]liberty,
at least for the rich, white gentry.
[A]As time marched along,
this[E] plant that I refer to has been u[D]sed for everything,
from medicine to the American[A] flag.
Yeah, so, if you don?t buy the conspiracy,
just [E]look at the reality
that your t[D]ax dollars go
to spray poison on the fields of a farmer in South [A]America.
And as an added bonus,
your nei[E]ghbor might be the proud recipions of that p[D]oison weed.
Oh marijuana
now the government wants to test me when I pee.
Oh marijuana
a gift of god to my brothers and me.
Oh marijuana
you cant legislate your own morality.
Oh marijuana
the government wants to test me when I pee

NOW STRUM THE ABOVE CHORD FOR THE FOLLOWING PART
Reefer madness, chronic sadness,
what is the half-life of bad propaganda?
Policies fail, denied bail,
you made him a demon now pay for his trip to prison.
Hired to promote the status quo,
but what is the shelf life of bad legislation.
The hypocrite smirks, it?s a moral disgrace
as he reads from a law that was written
about the same time that he had
his last original thought.
[A]Well the men said he was dying,
and the nau[E]sea and the pain left him wa[D]sting away
and unable to keep a meal down[A].
So he tried everything a prescrip[E]tion could obtain
but to n[D]o avail.
The side effects were worse than the pa[A]in.
So now he breaks the law
to u[E]se the one thing that seems to[D] help him out.
And the people say, Oh he's just getting[A] high.
But not to change the subject but,[E]
didn?t you ever wonder why [D]getting? high?s a crime,
yeah a crime.
Oh marijuana, a gift to god to my brothers and me.
Oh marijuana, now the government wants to test me when I pee.
Oh marijuana, the government wants to test me when I pee.
Oh marijuana, the government wants to test me when I pee.
Oh marijuana, the government wants to test me when I pee.
Oh marijuana, this is the part when everyone would sing along aha,when I pee
