[G] [Am]
[A] I'm not a leader, I'm not a left-wing [D] rhetoric, mobilizing [C] force of one
[D] But there was a time way back many years ago in college
[C] Don't laugh, but [D] I thought I was a radical.
I ran a hemp liberation league [Am] with my boyfriend
[A] It was true love with a common [D] cause, besides that [C] he was a [D] Sagittarius
[Am]
[Dm] Used to say that our love was like hemp [D] rope, three times as strong as the rope [Am] that you buy domestically
[D] And we would bond in the face of oppression from big [C] business and the deans, [Dm] but I know there was a problem
Every time [D] the group would meet, [Am] everyone would light up
[D] I made it difficult to discuss glaucoma and human rights, not to mention [G] chemotherapy

[G] [E]
[Am] [Dm]
[G] [Am]
[Dm] Well, sometimes life gives [G] us lessons sent [Am] in ridiculous packaging
[Dm] So I found him in the arms [D] of a student against the treacherous use [C] of fur
[Dm] And he gave no apology.
He just turned [D] to me, stoned out [Am] to the edge of oblivion
He didn't pull up the sheets, and I think he even smiled
As he said [C] to me
Well, I guess our dreams went up in smoke
And [D] I said no, our dreams went up in dreams, you stupid pothead
And another thing, what kind of a name is students against the treacherous [Am] use of fur?
[A] Fur is already dead, and besides a [D] name like that doesn't [C] make a good acronym
[G] [Am]
[D] I am older now, I know the rise and gradual fall of a [A] daily victory
And I still write to my senator saying they should [D] legalize cannabis
And [Am] I should know, cause I [Dm] am a horticulturist.
I have a husband [D] and two children [Am] now
Out in Lexington, Mass
[Dm] And my ex-boyfriend can't tell [D] me I've sold out
[C] Because he's in a cult, [G] and he's not allowed to talk to me
[D] [C]
