Biografía:
The Flatlanders is an American country band from Lubbock, Texas, founded in 1972 by Joe Ely, Jimmie Dale Gilmore and Butch Hancock.
The fact that all that these Texas music titans, on their first go-round as The Flatlanders in 1972, were completely rejected by the country music establishment is surprising in retrospect but, ultimately, poetic. That each went on to have formidable solo careers is a testament to their talent and determination. Add to this their diverse yet complimentary styles - Joe the street-wise rocker

"Bhagavan Decreed" chords off of the amazing One More Road/More A Legend Than A
Band record.
Listen to the song for precise timing during chord changes.
Putting a capo on the third fret and working from there (G becomes the E shape, C is the
A shape, etc.) works best - this is how
it is played on the album cuts.
G
G C G
Brains cannot defeat me when I'm stoned little darling
G A7 D7
Sticks and stones can beat you out of time
G C G
And I'm standing on the brink of a bridge that's black at sunrise
G A7 G
I don't think I'll be home in time to dine
C G
Each plant has a root that's dipped in blood
C A7 D7
So later on we'll all find out we're just nameless mud
G C G
And I'm sayin' good bye to those old-time demons darling
G A7 G
Leave at your own risk, not mine
[repeat the pattern throughout the remainder of the song]
Why can't you make it to the place you're always going to
Could it be you're going to all the time
Well I might be traveling backwards when I wake up tomorrow
If you must go won't you please leave me a dime
The earth turns on as Bhagavan decreed
So later on we'll see ourselves and all be free
But sayin' goodbye to you is suicidal darling
Don't hang your mind up just where I hang mine
Life is a quarry you can dig all you want too
Rockin' jumpin' ball go up or down
And you can burn your brain cells out just trying to get higher
But you'll find the highest place is underground
They've got you like the moon has got the tide
You say your drifting babe you're going for a ride
You say one day soon we will all stand as brothers
G A7 G C G
Till then I guess we'll just stand around
Enjoy! This is one of my first attempts at this, comments are definitely welcome and appreciated.
I really enjoy the lyrics in this song; they may be off a tad bit as they aren't
plastered all over lyric sites.
