The Way Life Ought To Be- Lokal Brown

 C          Em/B
   Hark! listen to the sound
    F          C    
   Follow you all around
    F               C            G
   Rest your ears close to the ground
       C         Em/B
   Hear worldly advice then
       F               C
   Of men with brave voices
    F            C           G
   Buried here, somewhere around

             C   Em/B  F          G
   It's the same song playing all over
        C  Em/B   F       G      C
   The old song over and over again

    C           Em/B
   Hark! listen to your heart
    F            C
   Speak of the things
         F             C            G
   Your eyes were then too young to see
         C           Em/B
   Of a home in the wilderness
      F         C       F
   Nurtured by elderly people
       C           G
   So sinless and free

    C           Am          F            G
   Like the old woman with silver in her hair
      C       Em          F  G
   Preparing a wonderful meal
       C         Am           F           G
   Or old songs a barefooted grandfather sung
          C           Em          F
   As he perched on his favorite tree
             G
   Quite so free

   Am                    Em
   How is it then that we now come to be
     F                          C
   Homeless and forgotten in a land we've set free
   Dm                   C
   No grain to sow, no treasures to show
       F             G           C
   Is this the way life ought to be?

   Interlude: F-G-C-Em-F-G-

BENEFITS OF MUSIC TO PEOPLE

Children who study music tend to have larger vocabularies and more advanced reading skills than their peers who do not participate in music lessons.
Children with learning disabilities or dyslexia who tend to lose focus with more noise could benefit greatly from music lessons.
Music programs are constantly in danger of being cut from shrinking school budgets even though they're proven to improve academics.
Children who study a musical instrument are more likely to excel in all of their studies, work better in teams, have enhanced critical thinking skills, stay in school, and pursue further education.
In the past, secondary students who participated in a music group at school reported the lowest lifetime and current use of all substances (tobacco, alcohol, and illicit drugs).
Schools with music programs have an estimated 90.2% graduation rate and 93.9% attendance rate compared to schools without music education, which average 72.9% graduation and 84.9% attendance.
Regardless of socioeconomic status or school district, students (3rd graders) who participate in high-quality music programs score higher on reading and spelling tests.
A Stanford study shows that music engages areas of the brain which are involved with paying attention, making predictions and updating events in our memory.
Much like expert technical skills, mastery in arts and humanities is closely correlated to a greater understanding of language components.
Young children who take music lessons show different brain development and improved memory over the course of a year, compared to children who do not receive musical training.
Schools that have music programs have an attendance rate of 93.3% compared to 84.9% in schools without music programs.
