Intro

| C G6/B | Am7 C/G |
| Fmaj7 C/E | D D/C |

Verse 1

We're playing these mind games together
Pushing the barriers planting seeds 
Playing the mind guerrila 
Chanting the mantra "Peace on Earth"
We all been playing those mind games forever 
Some kinda druid dude lifting the veil 
Doing the mind guerilla 
Some call it magic the search for the grail 

Bridge

Love is the answer and you know that ... for sure 
Love is a flower you gotta let it you gotta let it grow 

Verse 2

So keep on playing those mind games together
Faith in the future outta the now 
You just can't beat on those mind guerilla 
Absolute elsewhere in the stones of your mind 
Yeah, we're playing those mind games forever 
Projecting our images in space and in time 

Bridge

Love is the answer and you know that ... for sure 
Love is a flower you gotta let it you gotta let it grow 

Verse 3

So keep on playing those mind games together
Doing the ritual dance in the sun 
Millions of mind guerillas
Putting the soul power to the Karmic wheel 
Keep on playing those mind games forever 
Raising the spirits of peace and love 

Outro

| C G6/B | Am7 C/G | Fmaj7 C/E | D D/C |
Love ...
I want you to make love, not war 
I know ... you've heard it before 
(fade out over last two lines)
