[G] [D] Some folks trust the reason, others trust the mind.
I don't trust nothing, but I know it come out right.
I'd say it once again now, oh I hope you understand.
When it's turned over, oh, what matters is the man here.
And playing, playing in the band, daybreak, daybreak on the land.

Some folks look for answers, others look for fights.
Some folks love the free thoughts, just to look to see the sights.
I can tell you true, just look what's in your hand.
But I can't stop nothing, I'm just playing in the band.
Playing, playing in the band, daybreak, daybreak on the land.

You just keep training while I'm playing in the band.
If a man mind you, got no sin upon his hand.
Let him cast on at me, but I'm playing in the band.
Playing, playing in the band, daybreak, daybreak on the land.
