The spacing when I pasted this is off so the chord changes aren't by the words exactly.
I may fix it one day when I have time. I figured this out as I couldn't find any music
for it myself. Sound's pretty close to me. Small part at the end missing. Enjoy. I found
the lyrics on some lyrics site.
D D(v) Bm A x3
D D(v) Bm A
Owsley and Charlie, twins of the trade,
[G]Come to the Poet's Room[A]
D D(v) Bm A
Talking about the problems of a leaf,
[G] [A]
And yes, it'll be back soon
[Bm]There used to be tons of gold and green[D][A]
[C#m]Comin' up here from Mexico[F#]
[G]A donde esta la planta, mi amigo, del sol?[F#][G]
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/jefferson_airplane/mexico_crd.html )
[A]But Mexico is under the thumb[G]
[D]Of a man we call Richard
And he's[A] come to call himself king[F#]
[G]But he's a small-headed man
And he do[A]esn't know a thing[G]
About how to deal for you[D]
How to deal for you[Bm]
[E]There are millions of you now
[D]I mean it's not as if you were alone
[E]There are brothers everywhere
[D]Just waiting for a toke on that gold
[E]And God kno[E]ws how far it can go[E][E]
[C]You're famous Uncle Charlie
[A]For your Mexican smoke
[C]You're a legend Owsley
[A]For your righteous dope
[D]There were a half a million people on the lawn[G]
[D]And we sang to their faces in the dawn[G]
[Am]How long will that young race[G]
[Am]Wait for the jailer's time to end?[G][E]
[Am]How long will the Panther race[G]
[Am]Wait for the iron bars to bend?[G]
[E]And no no no no no nobody waits
