1. Well I'm on a roll 'n you been rockin' Whattaya say we Just quit talkin' Strip off our clothes And crawl into bed And we can give each other Social diseases We're falling to pieces But we'll do what we pleases We're already doomed
2. Whatever you've got I've already caught Athlete's foot And the creeping rot Syphilis herpes AIDS flu gonorrhea Too much socializin' has given me Social diseases We're falling to pieces But we'll do what we pleases We're already doomed

Lead in with Witnessing, verse 1
1.
C Dm
Here's my tune to marijuana
C Bb
Here's my tune to pot
C Dm
If you don't like marijuana
C Bb C
I hope you like what you've got
Eb Db C
I've been trying to think it all out
Eb Db C
I've been trying all along
Eb Db C
When I weigh up all the factors
C Bb C
Then I just can't say it's wrong
Bb Eb Db C
Yes, I see it do some damage
Bb Eb Db C
When it's grafted to the throng
Bb Eb Db C
But you've got to hear the potheads
Bb Eb Bb
When they turn their minds to song

C Dm
Here's my tune to marijuana
C Bb
Here's my tune to hemp
C Dm
If you tune to marijuna
C Bb C
You might not be such a wemp
Eb Db C
Was a time I thought I'd finished
Eb Db C
I thought I had grown too old
Eb Db C
The weed I had just made me cough
C Bb C
My spirit fire was cold
Bb Eb Db C
But the fault was not my habit
Bb Eb Db C
But the weed that I'd been sold
Bb Eb Db C
If you want to kick the habit
Bb Eb Bb Eb-Bb-Bdim
Don't buy Acupulco Gold
3.
C Dm
Here's my tune to marijuana
C Bb
Here's my tune to grass
C Dm
If you tune to marijuana
C Bb C
You might not be such an ass
Eb Db C
I'm dirty hot and sweaty
Eb Db C
I've worked all day in my yard
Eb Db C
Then I relax with a bowl of gold
C Bb C
Until my lungs are charred
Bb Eb Db C
And if someday my Lord should say
Bb Eb Db C
My Spirit would be marred
Bb Eb Db C
I would give away my pipes and pot
Bb Eb Bb Eb-Bb-Eb-G
Sometimes his Will is hard.

G Am
Here's my tune to marijuana
G F
Here's my tune to boo
G Am
If you tune to marijuana
G F Am G
Marijuana tunes to you
Bb Ab G
Marijuana is a crutch they say
Bb Ab G
As they are crippling me
Bb Ab G
But they can't see how I'm crippled
G F G
'Cause they're crippled just like me
F Bb Ab G
Those who need them have eyeglasses
F Bb Ab G
Likewise grass can help you see
F Bb Ab G
Like a wheelchair for an invalid
F Bb F Bb-f-Bb-Bdim
Pot sets your spirit free
5. [silent chorus]
C - Dm / C - Bb / C - Dm / C - Bb - C
Eb Db C
I've been trying to think it all out
Eb Db C
I keep thinking without end
Eb Db C
If my thoughts require adjustment
C Bb D
I'll depend upon my friend
Bb Eb Db C
When we weigh up all the factors
Bb Eb Db C
Weighing each as right and wrong
Bb Eb Db C
Marijuana made it possible
Bb Eb Bb G
That I should write this song
G -Am / G - F / G - Am / G - F - Bb - Bdim

C Dm
You could be a witness to a crime
C Dm
But you would not remember the time or the place
Eb
And you wouldn't remember their faces
Em Dm C
Or the color of the getaway truck 'cause you were stoned
(insert Tune to Marijuana here)
2.
C Dm
You could be a witness to a vision of God
C Dm
Angels would be singing all around your body
Eb
They'd be singing their anthems of glory
Em Dm C
But you could not follow the story 'cause you were stoned

G7
Farmer Jones and Farmer Smith / Like to perpetuate the myth
Bb7 G7
They're out there growin' strictly legal on their land

But if you only knew the truth / They're simply catering to youth

You see they're businessmen and there's a big demand (for)
C C7
Marijuana (Got to hide it from the cops)
G G7
Marijuana (Let's hope neither of them stops)

Marijuana (Growin' green 'n' golden tops)
D
Have another puff / If you had enuff
Whydoncha pass that j to me
2.
G7
Farmer Jones's day is done / Smith stops to watch the setting sun
Bb7 G7
They like to have a little fun like you and me
G7
The reason they're not raisin' pork / Is 'cause the folks up in New York
Bb7 G7
Might pay as much as two point five for one oh-zee (of)
C C7
Marijuana (They're just in it for the profit)
G G7
Marijuana ('Though the cops'd like to off it)
C C7
Marijuana (Say, how long you had that cough?
D
It smells like harsh ol' 'lumbo in this J
Why don't you buy from the U S of A?)
[Opening strains of the national anthem in G]

I'm an old dope cleaner
Bb-Dm-Bb F
I'm a pot-seed gleaner
F Eb F
I'm a reader between the lines
Cm Db F Cm
...I smoke a little dope
Bb F
Apply a little hope
F Eb Db C
I can see what people have in their minds

Hyp-no-tized you could say, why,
Bb Dm Bb F
Or may-be a way I have
F Eb F
Made myself weak in the brain

The mind is a trinket
F Eb Db C
And all of ours hang on a chain

the in-ter-nal dancer

So one knows the questions to ask

to the waters where mind can re - fresh

I'm an old love-drinker

Some-times I'm a stinker

These few words -- how odd

But that's how the living get by

How completely they satisfy
