Do the riff above for the verses shown below:

Verse 1:
Like a rebel with a cause I never pause
Elite tours keep you all on the floor
The beat falls
give me a chance advance through doors
I’ve seen all there’s only one saboleur
in the meanwhile no scowl just to rile
never seen a trial, but keep the seen wild & I’ll
speak out just to freak out the peeps
now trip about no doubt get on your feet
complete booms go from room to room
never assume from the womb & rocking 
it to the tomb when my plume touch 
the paper the vapors rise high
want to open your mind’s eye
make death wave bye bye

Chorus:

D5                      Bb5                    C5                                D5 
Throw your hands way up high, wave ‘em side to side like you glad to be alive
     
D5                                     Bb5                           C5 
And if you know where you’re going when you die say everything’s alright

D5
everything’s alright

Use the Riff for Verse 2

Verse 2:

Like a waterfall it flows fast & free
you been audacious when I speak 
next year next month next week everyday
until I’m old in my ray day never play this halfway
say could you open up your mind for a minute & let me run in it so
I could speak from
within it you know
It helps to get the point across boss
so like I said that one time you need a piece of my mind
as I run through to undo the miscue & to add to virtue
you withdrew from your life take back tonight
on track alright 
let me see you get light

Now go back to the chorus again

I haven’t quite got the Bridge yet, but I’ll submit it when I find
out how to play it.  This song is tight, Rod Laver is awesome!
