[Verse 1]

Gm7                   F
High time we made a stand
           EbMaj7                                            Am/D
And shook up the views of the common man
                        EbMaj7                       Am/D
And the love train, rides from coast to coast
EbMaj7                   Am/D
DJ's the man we love the most

Gm7                                                    F
Could you be could you be squeaky clean
            EbMaj7                                   Am7
And smash every hope of democracy
                           EbMaj7                                     Am/D
As the headline says you're free to choose
                EbMaj7                                     Am/D
There's egg on your face and mud on your shoes
EbMaj7                                                    Am/D
One of these days they're gonna call it the blues

[Chorus x2]

C                  CMaj7                 Am
Sowing the seeds of love
Am7             FMaj7
Seeds of love
Ab                     G7
Sowing the seeds

[Verse 2]
          Gm7 F
I spy, tears in their eyes
          EbMaj7                      Am/D
They look to the skies for some kind of divine
         EbMaj7            Am/D
intervention, food goes to waste
EbMaj7                       Am/D
So nice to eat, so nice to taste

Gm7                                     F
Politician granny with your high ideals
EbMaj7                                Am7
Have you no idea how the majority feels
     EbMaj7                      Am/D
So without love and a promised land
          EbMaj7                              Am/D
We're fools to the rules of the government plan
EbMaj7                              Am/D
Kick out the style, bring back the jam

[Chorus]

C                  CMaj7               Am
Sowing the seeds of love
Am7             FMaj7
Seeds of love
Ab                      G7
Sowing the seeds
        Ab                   G7
The birds and the bees
Ab                        G7        Fmaj7
My girlfriend and me, in love

[Instrumental]

EbMaj7
Fmaj7 EbMaj7
F           EbMaj7
F           EbMaj7
