Psychedelic Raga rock for gitars, bass, & drums...
Didn't find the lost chord here, just got rid of the rest of them.

Lyrics
One Chord Song

I'm sick and tired of being lonely

My knees are shot from falling down

The sidewalk's giving way below me

I guess I'm going under ground

Everything

Means nothing

And I sing

Ah ... A one chord song

Ah ... A one chord song

I needed food you gave me hunger

I needed you and I got words

Where were you when I stormed the bunker

In a funkhole feeding birds

Everywhere

You're not there

Here's my prayer

Ah ... A one chord song

Ah ... A one chord song

Thoughts buzz by like mad mosquitos

Distracting me from the truth

And all my feelings have been vetoed

Yanked just like a rotten tooth

Am I clear

Are you near

Can you hear

Ah ... A one chord song

Ah ... A one chord song

Ah ...
