The Joint

A A A A

[Verse 1]
A
The only joint my mother burned was 
on the rural route
A
She parked in old man Taylor's woods
 so she wouldn't be found out
A
Turned off her dome light and snuck 
off by herself
A
Crouched down beneath that window, 
fired it up, and gave it hell

[Chorus]
A                            D   
That hangout my daddy used to 
   A
hang around
   A                            
We watched it all go up in smoke 
   E
until it all came down
A                                 
Just like that the tabs and stools
    D           A
 and tables got turned

A                    E          
To the only joint my momma ever, 
A
burned, burned

[Verse 2]
A
Just like someone flipped a switch, 
dad started coming home
A
No more eating late cause supper's 
with that tavern gone
A
I had my suspicions, til the night 
when we said grace
A
Dad said, "Forgive us, our 
transgressions as I lit up momma's 
face."

[Chorus]
          A                       
Like that hangout my daddy used to
D      A
 hang around
   A                            
We watched it all go up in smoke 
   E
until it all came down
A                                 
Just like that the tabs and stools
     D          A
 and tables got turned
       A             E        
To the only joint my momma ever 
  A
burned, (burned x7)

[Bridge]
   D                               
Of all the small town bonfires and 
A
bloodhounds in this town
        D                          
I'm the only one who ever found out
  E
 about

[Chorus]
     A                       D    
That hangout my daddy used to hang
  A
 around
   A                            
We watched it all go up in smoke 
   E
until it all came down
A                                 
Just like that the tabs and stools
     D          A
 and tables got turned
A                    E          
To the only joint my momma ever 
A
burned
