Verse 1
(G major) And I want y 'all to hear
(B flat major) this defense blues,
(C major) I mean the relax your (G major) mind blues.
(C major)
Relax your mind, that means,
when you relax,
a lot of people don't ever relax,
cause I used to didn't relax myself.
That's the reason my leg,
you know, got like it is,
working it too much.
One time you got to relax your mind,
then you'll always feel fine.
sometimes you go too fast.
You're overgoing your mind in a way,
your mind is running you something,
you got to relax once in a while.
So it's just to relax,
what you call relax your mind, lose.
(B flat major) I I'm, (C major) I do it, I (B flat major) made this song
just (C major) on the kind of people driving cars.
(B flat major) You can't (C major) drive a car
and look all across (B flat major) the road.
You got to look (C major) down the road
where you're going,
(B flat major) be cause that's cause so much trouble
(C major) now.
So many people lost, that's (B flat major) true.
(C major) Not relaxing.
(B flat major) And then you see the people,
(C major) people ain't looking where
they're (B flat major) going, see?
Yeah, not (C major) where they're going.
I drove all (B flat major) through this country,
it's a long night for my (D major) self,
and I never even run over
(C major) a chicken.
Never run over nothing.
Of I'm gonna look (B flat major) down the way I'm
going.
You can talk to me all you wanna,
(C major) but I ain't gonna turn my head and look at you,
you sitting up there.
You can talk,
but I'm gonna look right down the way I'm
going, that's true.
And if you don't do it,
(B flat major) something's going to happen
(C major) be cause that's electricity.
And you can't work with electri (B flat major) city
because when you look off
and you're going wrong,
when you look (C major) around,
you don't got excited,
you can't even (B flat major) stop.
And (C major) that's what caused the
trouble, see?
And I just made (B flat major) a blues,
relax your mind,
and it'll make you live a
(C major) long time.
Now you just listen to this relax
(B flat major) your mind blues,
just words (C major) put together. (G major) (C major)
(B flat major)
(D major) (G major) (D major) (C major)
(D major)
(G major) (D major) (C major) (G major)
(C major) Relax your mind, relax your (B flat major) mind,
(C major) ooh, it'll make you live a
(B flat major) great long (C major) time.
Sometimes,
you've (G major) got to relax (D major) your (C major) mind
When the lights turn green, (B flat major)
(A minor) push down (C major) on your gasoline
One time, you've (G major) got to relax your mind
(C major) When (D major) (C major) the lights
turn red, (B flat major)
shove your brakes (G major) down to the (C major) bed
One time, you've got to (G major) relax your (C major) mind
Relax your mind,
relax your (B flat major) mind
Oh, make it feel (C major) so (G major) (D major) fun
(C major) sometimes
Sometimes,
you've got to (G major) re (D major) lax your (C major) mind
Yeah (B flat major) (D major) (C major) (D major) (C major)
(D major)
(C major) (G major)
(C major)
When you're driving your automobile,
(B flat major) ooh, keep your eyes down
(C major) through that windshield.
That's the time you've (G major) got to
relax your mind. (C major) (G major)
(C major) Once there was a man
crossing a railroad (B flat major) track,
ooh (C major) boy, and he forgot to relax.
That's the one time
he (G major) should have relaxed his mind. (C major)
Relax your mind,
relax your (B flat major) mind,
ooh, make it feel just (C major) as fine
as wine.
Sometimes you (G major) got to relax your (C major) mind,
(G major) re (C major) lax now. (B flat major) (C major) (D major)
(C major)
(D major)
(G major) (C major) (G major)
(C major)
Relax your mind,
relax your (B flat major) mind,
ooh, relax
It'll make (C major) you live a great
(C major) long time
