Coversong originally made famous by John Kay & Steppenwolf

     Em
Get your motor runnin'

Head out on the highway

Lookin' for adventure

In whatever comes our way

 G       A           E
Yeah, darlin' gonna make it happen
 G         A         E
Take the world in a love embrace
 G    A          E                G  A         E
Fire all of the guns at once and explode into space

  Em
I like smoke and lightnin'

Heavy metal thunder

Wrestlin' with the wind

And the feelin' that I'm under

 G       A           E
Yeah, darlin' gonna make it happen
 G         A         E
Take the world in a love embrace
 G    A          E                G  A         E
Fire all of the guns at once and explode into space

        E
Like a true nature's child
         G      
We were born, born to be wild
           A            G             Em
We could climb so high, I never wanna die
 E          D    E  D 
Born to be wild,
 E          D    E  D 
Born to be wild,

[guitar solo]

     Em
Get your motor runnin'

Head out on the highway

Lookin' for adventure

In whatever comes our way

 G       A           E
Yeah, darlin' gonna make it happen

LYRICS
Why?
Did I drop the bomb on Nagasaki
Hugh?
Did ya drop the bomb Hiroshima

Here’s dropping a bomb upon you:

Chorus
Matters what you do
Matters what you don’t
If it impacts me
It will impact you
Don’t say you can’t
When you mean won’t

Did we clone a drone
To assassinate what we hate
Do we drop bombs forgetting
The little children at the wedding

LYRICS
There’s a problem over there
Can you hear it going down
The sound of fear
You don’t wanna hear
Fills their air
In town

Drama phenomena

There’s a problem over there
Can you see it going down
A sight so ugly
You don’t wanna see
Fills their air
In town

There’s a problem over there
Can you smell it going down
A scent so foul
It’ll make ya growl
Fills their air
In town

If you want to be strong

LYRICS
Do you wonder if it’s coming true
Why’s it coming into view
Do you wonder if it’s coming true
Do you?

If you hate being right
No sense blaming insight
You did what you could to shed light

Do you ponder inevitability
Why it’s coming into view
Do you ponder why you see what you see
Do you?

LYRICS
Not behind your behind
I want to face your face

Just catching the tail end of the tale’s end
What message do we send
Just wishing the ail end of the whale’s end
Our savage we do send

Not behind your behind
I want to trace your face
Not behind the behind
W ant to pace the race

But, I feel like I’m talking to your butt

LYRICS
Start the day in the usual way
Somewhere, somehow it goes astray
Will today be the day
The weak and innocent are O.K.?

All I can say
Hope help is on the way

Going through the day, I say,
“Somewhere, someone diminish dismay”
May it be me, I pray
The meek and decent are O.K.

All I can say
Hope help is on the way

Winding down to the end of the day
What on Earth have you to say
For how the kingdom should pay
Inherit the Earth? Well, O.K.!

All I can say
Help is on the way

Hopefully, something pretty
A gift to you and all your kin

From the country to the city
The dense to the witty
May goodwill come back to you again and again

Listen to the angels sing
The saving grace they bring

LYRICS
Pardon me,
I hate to interrupt
But, ya see
Please turn the distortion up

With passing years
Escalation of fear
I want to hear
Through distorted ear

Our solution
De-evolution
Through pollution

The irony
Of the social tyranny
Is killing me

The way we inflict our will
Shouts out kill, kill, kill!

LYRICS
I heard the first snowflake fell
You could tell from the children’s yell
Feeling swell takin’ in the Christmas smell
You can smell the season in the air
Awash with the waft of love and care

I heard of heaven and hell
Could all be a matter of, “Oh, well.”
There is one easy way to tell
Can you smell the season in the air?
Awake with intake of love and care

You can smell it in the air
Once you become aware
Finding joy everywhere
