INTRO

D6           Em            F#m(add4)
For a while, we could sit, smoke a pipe 
Em                  D6          Em           F#m(add4)    Em
And discuss all the vast intricacies of life 
D6         Em                F#m(add4)
We could jaw through the night 
             Em                
Talk about a range of subjects, 
D6           Em    F#m(add4)   Em    D6/9
anything you like, oh yeah        e|------0-----|

Take a sip, see the world through a glass 
    Em         D6                Em       F#m(add4)   Em
And speculate about the cosmic solution 
D6           Em            F#m(add4)
To the sound, blue guitars, caught up in a 
Em               D6       Em       
philosophical discussion, oh yeah e|------------|
