[Intro] E 

     E
She hates her job, loves her kids

Bored with her husband
                                        A
Tired of the same old list of things to do
                                  E
So when the to-dos have all been done
          B7
She sits down at the kitchen table
                     E              
And rolls herself a fat one

E
Smoke so sweet fills the air

She maybe ought to crack a window
                                    A
But all she can do is stare at the paint
                             E           
That's been peeling off the walls
   B7                                                E
A couple tokes and her troubles don't seem all that tall

          A                             
You know life will let you down
                     E                  
Love will leave you lonely
B7                           A  B7            
Sometimes to only way to get by
           E                             
Is to get high

     E                                   
She laughs out loud at who she used to be
                                        
A girl who'd a looked down on
                             A          
A woman smoking weed in her kitchen
                                   E    
Sometimes she misses them younger days
            B7                            
Seeing the world through rose colored glasses
                        E               
Instead of this purple haze

          A                             
You know life will let you down
                     E                  
Love will leave you lonely
B7                           A  B7            
Sometimes to only way to get by
           E                             
Is to get high

        E                               
So she tucks her kids in at night
                                        
Kisses her husband, turns off the light
             A                          
And talks to God
                                           E
Says: "Lord, help me accept what I can't change
     B7                                   
But until I learn to do that
                     E                   
Thanks for the Mary Jane"

You know life will let you down
                        E                  
Love's gonna leave you lonely

Sometimes to only way to get by

Is to get high
