Get High

[Intro] E

     E
She hates her job, loves her kids

Bored with her husband
Tired of the same old list of things
    A
 to do
So when the to-dos have all been 
 E
done
          B7
She sits down at the kitchen table
                     E
And rolls herself a fat one

E
Smoke so sweet fills the air

She maybe ought to crack a window
But all she can do is stare at the 
 A
paint
                             E
That's been peeling off the walls
   B7                          
A couple tokes and her troubles 
                      E
don't seem all that tall

[Chorus]

          A
You know life will let you down
Continues after the ad
                     E
Love will leave you lonely
B7                           A  B7
Sometimes to only way to get by
           E
Is to get high

     E
She laughs out loud at who she used 
to be

A girl who'd a looked down on
                             A
A woman smoking weed in her kitchen
Sometimes she misses them younger 
 E
days
            B7
Seeing the world through rose 
colored glasses
                        E
Instead of this purple haze

[Chorus]

          A
You know life will let you down
                     E
Love will leave you lonely
B7                           A  B7
Sometimes to only way to get by
           E
Is to get high

        E
So she tucks her kids in at night

Kisses her husband, turns off the 
light
             A
And talks to God
Says: "Lord, help me accept what I 
        E
can't change
     B7
But until I learn to do that
                     E
Thanks for the Mary Jane"

[Chorus]

          A
You know life will let you down
                        E
Love's gonna leave you lonely
B7                           A  B7
Sometimes to only way to get by
           E
Is to get high

       B7                          
Yeah, sometimes the only way to get
 A  B7
 by
           E
Is to get high
