Biography:
Jefferson Airplane, a rock band based in San Francisco, California, was one of the pioneering bands of psychedelic rock. Formed in 1965, the group defined the San Francisco Sound and was the first from the Bay Area to achieve international commercial success. They were headliners at the three most famous American rock festivals of the 1960s—Monterey (1967), Woodstock (1969) and Altamont (1969)—and the first Isle of Wight Festival (1968) in England.

Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
The spacing when I pasted this is off so the chord changes aren't by the words exactly.
I may fix it one day when I have time. I figured this out as I couldn't find any music
for it myself. Sound's pretty close to me. Small part at the end missing. Enjoy. I found
the lyrics on some lyrics site.
D D(v) Bm A x3
D D(v) Bm A
Owsley and Charlie, twins of the trade,
G A
Come to the Poet's Room
D D(v) Bm A
Talking about the problems of a leaf,
G A
And yes, it'll be back soon
Bm D A
There used to be tons of gold and green
C#m F#
Comin' up here from Mexico
G F# G
A donde esta la planta, mi amigo, del sol?
A G
But Mexico is under the thumb
D
Of a man we call Richard
A F#
And he's come to call himself king
G
But he's a small-headed man
A G
And he doesn't know a thing
D
About how to deal for you
Bm
How to deal for you
E
There are millions of you now
D
I mean it's not as if you were alone
E
There are brothers everywhere
D
Just waiting for a toke on that gold
E E E E
And God knows how far it can go
C
You're famous Uncle Charlie
A
For your Mexican smoke
C
You're a legend Owsley
A
For your righteous dope
D G
There were a half a million people on the lawn
D G
And we sang to their faces in the dawn
Am G
How long will that young race
Am G E
Wait for the jailer's time to end?
Am G
How long will the Panther race
Am G
Wait for the iron bars to bend?
E
And no no no no no nobody waits
