[Intro]
G C D G

[Verse 1]
G C
In the first days of this country when the buffalo roamed the land
D C G
All the saddle tramps and cowboys used to roll their own by hand
G C
Well they'd swing up to the saddle on their ass or on their horse
D C G
And recite a little ditty that went like this of course:

[Chorus]
D C G
When your feet are in the stirrups and your ass is on the ground
D C D D7
Cause the grass that you've been eating is the finest stuff around
G C
Well let us not remember boys and let us not forget
D C G
Strike a match and light another marijuana cigarettе

[Verse 2]
G C
Ah you have heard of evil and you'vе heard of misery
D C G
And you heard of Richard Nixon, but you haven't heard of me
G C
You may think they go together and you may think that they do not
D C G
But there ain't much you'll be thinking once you've started smoking pot!

[Chorus]
D C G
When your feet are in the stirrups and your ass is on the ground
D C D D7
Cause the grass that you've been eating is the finest stuff around
G C
Well let us not remember boys and let us not forget
D C G
Strike a match and light another marijuana cigarettе

[Solo Breaks]
