I was sitting in my basement
I just rolled myself a taste of something
green and gold and glorious to get me through the day.
Then my friend yelled through the transom,
There's a nut down on the corner, givin' dollar bills away."
But I sat around a bit and then
Had another hit and then
Rolled myself a bauma
Thought about my mama
Looked around
Fooled around
Played around a while and then
I got stoned and I missed it
I got stoned and I missed it
I got stoooooned and it rolled right by
I got stoned and I missed it
I got stoned and I missed it
I got stoooooned oh me oh my
Now it took seven months of urging just to get that local virgin
With the sweet face up to my place to fool around a bit.
Next day she woke up rosy and she snuggled up so cozy
When she asked me how I liked it Lord it hurt me to admit
I was stoned and I missed it
I was stoned and I missed it
I was stoooooned and it rolled right by
I was stoned and I missed it
I was stoned and I missed it
I was stoooooned oh me oh my
Solo over Chorus chords
Now I ain't makin' no excuses for the many things I uses
Just to brighten my relationships and sweeten up my day.
But when my earthly race is over and I'm ready for the clover
And they ask me how my life has been I guess I'll have to say.
I was stoned and I missed it
I was stoned and I missed it
I was stoooooned and it rolled right by
I was stoned and I missed it
I was stoned and I missed it
I was stoooooned oh me oh my
