This is Brainwashed by the Kinks. No doubt, one of the best songs
ever. It is in dropped D tuning. Easy song and FUN song. I dont have
all the lead guitar, but most of it. To see where it all fits in, see
the bottom.

You look like a real human being
But you don't have a mind of your own.
Yea, you can talk, you can breathe,
you can work, you can stitch, you can sew.
But you're brainwashed.
"Chorus:"
C Bb F Bb F C
Yes you are, yes you are Get down on your knees.

Be a free thinker. Don't fall in to the masses with everyone else. Have a voice and a mind of your own. Don't be conditioned to accept the life everyone assumes is standard. Why is Ray not as famous as he should be, he writes some of the best lyrics ever.
