[Verse 1]
                       G       C                    G        C  G
Well, I must have been stoned when this whole thing started
      C                                    G       C  G
Cause I just can't seem to think straight anymore
  C
Can't figure out where I'm at
      G              D
Maybe Memphis, maybe Mexico
Em                          C                    D
I think you're swell, but I ain't gonna tell you so
Em                             C                   D
I think you're great, but it's late and I'd better go

C                                                   G       C  G
Well I'm flat-out broke, I've been smoking butts for days
C
You say, "Maybe you can stay with me"
        G                        D
I say, "Lady, that's a dangerous plan"
Em                          C                   D
You're quite a woman, but I don't wanna be your man
Em                         C                D
You're quite a kisser, but listen close and understand

Take a letter to God
C                  G        C  G
"Dear Sir, I'm dissatisfied
C                                                     G       C  G
Well it ain't Your fault they keep pouring salt on my heart"
C
All's I need is a brief reprieve
            G                    D
I keep leaving, I ain't gettin' nowhere
Em                       C                           D
Won't you linger, let me run my fingers through your hair?
Em                    C                 D
Won't you stay? I can play like I don't care
Em                         C                      D
I think you're dope, and I hope I'm making myself clear
Em                            C                       D
I think you're fly, and that's why I'm getting out of here

Well, I must have been stoned
