Intro
C G6+4 Am Fmaj7 D7

Verse 1
                    C         G6+4  Am
We're playing those mind games    together
            Fmaj7              D7
Pushing the barriers, planting seeds
            C   G6+4   Am
Playing the mind    guerrilla
             Fmaj7            D7
Chanting the mantra, peace on earth
                          C         G6+4  Am
We all been playing those mind games    forever
             Fmaj7                   D7
Some kind of druid dudes lifting the veil
          C   G6+4   Am
Doing the mind    guerrilla
             Fmaj7                     D7
Some call it magic, the search for the grail

Bridge 1
C    D      G           Em             D7
Love is the answer, and you know that, for sure
C    D    G           Em                               D7
Love is a flower, you got to let it, you got to let it grow

Verse 2
                         C         G6+4  Am
So keep on playing those mind games    together
             Fmaj7             D7
Faith in the future, outta the now
                             C   G6+4   Am
You just can't beat on those mind    guerrilla
         Fmaj7                           D7
Absolute elsewhere in the stones of your mind
                         C         G6+4  Am
Yeah we're playing those mind games    forever
               Fmaj7                  D7
Projecting our images in space and in time

Bridge 2
C   D      G           Em             D7
Yes is the answer, and you know that, for sure
C   D  G              Em                               D7
Yes is surrender, you got to let it, you got to let it go

Verse 3
                         C         G6+4  Am
So keep on playing those mind games    together
          Fmaj7               D7
Doing the ritual dance in the sun
            C   G6+4   Am
Millions of mind    guerrillas
              Fmaj7                    D7
Putting their soul power to the karmic wheel
                      C         G6+4  Am
Keep on playing those mind games    forever
            Fmaj7               D7
Raising the spirit of peace and love

Coda
C G6+4 Am Fmaj7 D7
Love
              C        G6+4  Am
I want you to make love, not war
Fmaj7                    D7
I know you've heard it before
