    F#m             E
You are my God, you are my dog
     F#m                 A
You kept me close, love never lost
   F#m                    E
I called you hippie, you said fuck off
 F#m                   B
Said your brother's a real punk rocker

Chorus:
 F#m                  E
Something's going to happen
 F#m            A
Something very soon
     F#m                  E
Transcending flesh could be a breeze
 F#m         B
Sending me, Lord, over the moon

Friends near death, you gave respect
Sympathetic intellect
Choices are for one and all
All we are is leaves that fall

F#m E B
       That's all

           F#m      E B
Always be loving you
Now I'm away from you
Always be loving you

'Round and 'round inside your head
Smartest fucker I ever met
Vicious fish bit at your toes
Made you lie and numb your soul

Chorus

Mule donkey ass you bore the load
Of all creation's tortured souls
Choices are for one and all
All we are are leaves that fall

Like no other, I love you, you're my brother
Like no other, I love you, you're my brother
Like no other, I love you, you're my brother
Like no other, I love you, you're my brother
Like no other, I love you, you're my brother
Like no other, I love you, you're my brother

G#m               E
Water flowing and I will drink it
I will drink for you
A part of me left that only you knew
      B              E
Will never be understood
Will never be understood

E
Hey, gone to stay
Entire lifetime flash before me
C#m   D
In a loving stream
E
Hey Mother may
I have lost a child but she gave birth
C#m   D
To a loving stream

Oh, never know
When the gods will come and take you
To a loving stream
Oh, heart of gold
The most special thing you gave me
From your loving stream
In a loving stream

Fuck the magazines
Fuck the green machine
See the human being
In a loving stream

Fuck the legal greed
Fuck the nothing scene
See the family
In a loving stream
