Cm                                          A#                  Cm
I met a man in a rock and roll band he said won't you come with me
Cm                                        A#               Cm
I let him know that I could not go you see I get mine for free

D#               A#               G#
We are all just soldiers in this battlefield of life
D#                    A#            G#
One thing that's for certain is my burning appetite

Step inside the emotional ride I could use some company
Illusionary is so damn scary I call my best friend Flea

This Ticonderoga is an element that shines
Connected by the great unknown between us there are lines

Chorus:
Cm     G#
Yes I told her that
A#      D#
I'm the older cat
G#                  B7
Can I scratch your back all day
G                   A#7
I would not have it any other way, well

Cm        G#
Means so much to me
A#       D#
Can you see the we
 G#         B7                 G
What are we ever gonna do when all
                 A#7
I want to be is next to you

I took a girl from the underworld and I held her way too tight
When it's all been said and done she was not up for the fight

We are all just soldiers in this open field of time
Hoping to get with you when you get right with your mind

Chorus:
It's my favorite
So I savor it
I must report that life is short
So of your love I'll take ten quarts well

There's no end to this
Don't pretend to miss
You and you would not repent for sitting
on my elephant and

am I crazy to
Join the lazy zoo
All these human butterflies and
Cactus flowers swollen eyes and

I want the devil's share
Of you I do declare
Again I'm asking can I do
When all these animals want to be just like you

I met a girl with long black hair and she opened up so wide
A daffodil growing in Brazil and I picked her for my bride
We are all just soldiers in this epic loving flight
And no one that I know has ever really done it right

         Cm
Done it right
         A# Cm
Done it right
         Cm
Done it right
         A# Cm
Done it right
