·        C, G, C

 

C     G             C        C7

All around the water tank

F                         C

Smokin' that loco weed

F                                 C

I thought that shit was pretty damn good

        D7                         G

So I stashed away some seeds

 

C                   G          C     C7

I threw them into my backyard

         F                   C

They shot up to the moon

G                      C

I knew I was a rich man

     D7                               G

At least I would be pretty soon

 

C          G                C       C7

I went down to the corner

           F                      C

Had a pound or two on me

         G                     C

But I ended up in the old jailhouse

           D7                      G

With a knife blade in my knee

 

C                 G                C    C7

I went up in front of my jury

      F                                  C

To give them some cock and bull

         F                                            C

They said, “We’d lock you away for a long, long time

             D7                          G

But the jailhouse is too damn full”

 

C         G      C          C7

Now I am a free man

     F                                 C

I’ll tell you what I’d like to do

       F                              C

It’s such a drag that they took my bag

           D7                 G                  C

Cuz I’d like to sit and smoke it with you
