C
Well this is real talk
       C7
This is non stop
    F       C   G
It is looped now tongue and mind.
          C
Played off the sidewalk,
          C7
straight to your boombox,
     F         C  G
how it travels from ear to memory.
        C
Well this is medicine,
       C7
there's a message within,
    F       G       C
and each will find it in their own time

Riff

 C           C7
well this is music, this is how I use it
    F        C    G
It makes you move and move the movements
        C            C7
this is how I focus, knowing it's not hopeless
    F            C    G
but it sure starts with me and ends on a whole note
    C        C7
musical medicine, this is my healing
    F            G    C
for past and present future things to come

Riff

C            C7
I see people stressin' over space and possessions
    F            C        G
out of fear and a need for visual aids of our abundance
    C        C7
give me examples or something tangible
        F            C    G
something I can get my hands on and find real meaning
        C        C7
where is the medicine? well I've been searching
    F            G    C
and I suppose each will find their own kind

Riff

C                C7
well everything's at stake, it makes it hard to concentrate
        F            C    G
and there are men who see a war and see a paycheck
    C            C7
Such different programming, to live so fearfully
        F        C    G
terror this and terror that terrible reality
        C        C7
there is no medicine on the television
    F            G  C
so turn it off and turn yourself around

Riff

C            C7
and let's just face it, the world's fuckin' racist
        F            C    G
even the most peaceful of us gets caught in the trend
    C        C7
to live cohesively is almost a fantasy
        F            C    G
and we ought to know it starts with humbling our egos
        C        C7
what is the medicine for cultural woundin'?
        F        G  C
has it's moments has it's melodies has it's time

Riff


C
Well I was listening,
         C7
to the outgoing season
     F              C G
about climate change and some of the reasons,
        C           C7
when the sky opened, like I'd been hope'n
         F      C - G
and there came horses by the thousands
         C
and there was thunder on their tongues
    C7
and lightning on their minds
      F        G
and they singing this old melody

 C
from some other time
      F   G    C C\B Am
They sang don't waste your H - at - e.
     F  G  C  C\B  Am
Rather gather and cr - ea - te
    F           G
Be a service, be a sensible person.
      C    C\B    Am
Use your words and don't be nervous.
     F    G      C
You can do this you've got purpose.
 F      G    C
Find your medicine and use it.

      F   G    C C\B Am
They sang don't waste your H - at - e.
     F  G  C C\B Am
Rather gather and cr - ea - te
    F           G
Be a service, be a sensible person.
      C    C\B    Am
Use your words and don't be nervous.
     F    G      C
You can do this you've got purpose.
 F      G    C
Find your medicine and use it.
